Wtf is goin on here? What's THAT all about, with the railroad spikes and aĺl?

Wait. It has wheels!? What could possibly go wrong?
When your on it the wheels go up inside and it sits on its feet. The 3 spikes represent Hank 3

In the industry I’m in I know to go head first no pain and suffering just quick death.
Only counts if your co-workers critique your dive and form, and award points. Score avaerage to be carved on headstone.

Let's be real though.

The General Motors 3800 series 2 is one of the best engines, ever.

EASY top 5 of all time.

The work would be worth it :imo:..


It's good but the 4.3 is a little more bullet proof and if they had started off with most of the cars and trucks having them think of how much more fun they would have been. I recall my family had a s-15 GMC with i think the 2.8 V6 and that truck felt fast as hell. Keep in mind I was like maybe 14 or 15 at the time so my perception of fast was limited by my experience at the time. Later on my 383 powered Vette gave me a new definition of fast that can only be compared to by my old Honda 919 Hornet, lol...

Seriously?
ANY 4.3 is absolutely NO comparison to a series II 3.8.
Not in your wildest dreams, ever.

I owned a 1997 vortex 4300 for a while and it wouldn't hold the DICK of a 2001 3800 on it's best day.
Both were 3.08 geared.

They are both good engines. Arguing over which is better is like arguing over the best direction to slice toast, lol.
