Re: Headed for the dark side
The first picture in my head was a truck with an Evinrude outboard motor(!) under the hood with some sort of turbo! Wow, yeah, that didn't work in my head. Glad you cleared it up. Made for an interesting picture though!

...I think he likes to make us think. Or use our imagination. Or go nuts.

Re: Headed for the dark side
Probably ALL of the above I have really grown to love that 3rd gen smallblock, & am looking for the parts truck. The last one I looked at , was too tired(225,000 on the clock), but I have all winter to look I plan to bring my old Longhorn, into this century.....tired of the loud/rude/ crude, 10mpg chit! I want that 18-20mpg cruising, hell she will still be fun with the 6 spd box crazyL

Re: Headed for the dark side
