Re: The Rules

I kept a scorecard for parts and the vehicles they were on in the past. I put a 305 Chevy with a 700 trans in a '72 Le Mans. Now, go ask for headers for that combination and watch the poor counterman scratch his head when you tell him that it has a 305 in it. I didn't like that when I worked a parts counter, so I don't do it to them. I tell them it's a '72 Malibu with a 350. Easy-peasy. They don't need to know the reality, unless they are real car guys and saw you pull in with a Poncho and were asking for Chevy parts. Of course, the Chevy COULD be laid out on the operating table at home.
