I have seen some cars like the 2004-2006 GTO that had major engine aligment issues front the factory. That was because they were made in a side shop by hand at Holden. Camaro's on the other hand are made on a normal assembly line with robots and lasers.

I will tell you, I have sold a lot of Camaro headers, and watch all the posts here. I have had maybe two or three different instances where a customer had issues with the header hitting the steering shaft. While you see people posting "loosen the motor mounts"...I have yet to see someone post that it actually worked on a Camaro. I know we have suggested it, and in the end the fix ends up being a new header...or if it's a cheap header, take the hammer to it.


While rare for the brands I sell, parts are still made by humans, and mistakes happen...that's why there is a warranty. Rolls Royces break down from time to time..does not mean they are not still much nicer than say a Chevy Malibu.
Bad when you have to take a hammer to a rolls royce...don't you think?

Haha. That's funny. My wife says I do run around screaming herp derp all day sometimes. And my 14 year old daughter is getting a kick out of your responses. Danke sir. You have made my Monday considering KU just layed the smackdown on K-State. Cheers!



::EDIT:: And google "herp derp" and click images... You find what I found.

For what its worth, ugly welds never made less power or were less structurally sound then pretty welds. Most ugly welds actually have better penetration then some quickly robo welded nickel rolls. Just saying.

No one has had to dent a set of Kooks..if a set does not fit, you send them in to be replaced (if not run yet), or repaired (if they have been on the car a while). People seem to only accept hammering the cheap stuff.

Oh come on. You got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything... As some backwoods-country boy used to say.

Perhaps. All i've seen is eye for an eye though. He was just unlucky that litle vents his emotions. Even i know that about litle. Don't say provacative things and everything will be alright!
