Why Quick is always right and the world is always wrong...
 
So when it comes to these trucks and LS1s, what's the worse info you've heard??

-Today a guy told me if he bolted 6l heads on his 5.3 he would gain 150hp

Just the other night, my brother's gf's brother said that you have to grind the block when you install ARP rod bolts. I said, "since when?" Then in an arrogant manner he said, " uh, since forever." I just walked away.

Another kid said that 5.3's are indestructible because the push rods are "captured" inside the block.

A buddy of mine with a 04 Silverado said his Superchips programmer was too much for his truck and wanted to get something tamer, a Jet chip.

I had a guy tell me that his GMC better not have a Chevy motor in it or he would take it back to the dealership and raise hell.

It is unbelievable. I could go on all day long...

Another buddy of mine said the throttle body spacer on his hemi ram gave him 3 more mpg. :rotflmao:

"them tornadoes are no joke, i got 30 more hp yo!" some idiot in vatozone, talking to cashier.

Some guy at the track, after I just explained to him how I got my gas truck into the 13s (which he barely believed in the first place, he thought only diesel's could be anywhere close to quick), told me that "A programmer would really wake this thing up, man".

:sigh:
