he would have been when he saw the gp'* and the bonne run!!!!

Awww...come on, give the kid a break. He was just trying to be like one of the cool guys. He just needs to keep his tongue tied.
He has more of a car than I did when I was his age......I didn't even have one. :(

Exactly why we didn't bust him too bad, he was a young kid all excted that he was driving by and was waved down by Stacey to come to this grand prix function. Were waiting for him to sign up and admit he was full of it.

Dude. That'* nothing. I mentioned to a buddy of mine with an 85 LeSabre w/ 305 that it was 5 liters also, From then on he told everyone the would listen that he had a Mustang engine... i have no idea how he connected the two, Or better yet why the little old lady who owned the car first would have done a Ford to GM swap... But the looks he got were the best. ranging from the obvious "I think you may be slow, and am now going to sprint away from you" to "You are retarded." Hilarious. I guess I have a GNX engine

Oh man, met another big time BS'er this weekend at the SLAP stereo comp.

Guy said he had a Alero, he is the moderator of some alero board too which makes it even better. Of course he didn't have it there. We were talking superchargers and he was telling me that he put one on his alero, I was that'* cool and all. I asked him what kind of blower, he tells me it'* not a blower, it'* a supercharger. me and this Camaro guy started laughing, he tells us that'* it'* an Apex charger and cost 4800 installed, Then we asked him what times he runs, 11.2 almost 10'*. Camero guy burst out, his Z28 had a powerdyne blower and he runs mid 11'*. We asked what else he did to it, Full Borla exhaust, Borla split maiflolds, and an intake running 8 lbs of boost. We asked what time again and trap speed, 11.2 and he didn't know. Told us to check out the alero boards and there'* pictures.

Immeditly knew he was full of it. RSM racing put a Vortec on a Grand Am 3400 and it ran low 13'* on 10 lbs of boost.

Did I mention he was a nerdy little twerp btw. Too funny, all day long we were joking around, Taylor what kind of blower you got? I don't have a blower it'* a supercharger.
Too funny. Why lie?
