A guy here at work bought an 07 regency that he said "has a corvette motor in it, its a 350." I tried to correct him a couple times, he didnt listen and bragged this to most of the idiots here at work who believe him. I connected him with Wheatley who tuned his truck, a week later he wrecked it from the newfound power that he couldnt handle.

I didn't know it but my truck has a 350, that's the best motor Chevrolet ever made and I could pick up some power with a 327 and a good demon carb........


Also there is no way a truck can beat a corvette.......even if it had a hypertech and full 3" flowmaster........


Sometime I just have to walk away, but other times I just love pickin on some people who won't shut up!

lol, coworker told me I should get a custom carbon fiber bed... Also that only LS2s were built for racing purposes and that modding trucks is a waste of time.
