Re: Search Engine - Do you know what it is?
That was my whole point for starting this thread. I remember when I first came up here and had to ask questions but I made sure that they were very specific questions that were not general in a sense. An example would be, as far as the "I wanna supe up my 307", maybe a way to word that is "Is there a intake/carb swap that will get me more torque out of my 307". Sweet and to the point, not general in a sense where you're gonna get into cam selection, valvetrain parts, bottom end, electronics, etc etc.
My argument is if some people would simply research in this search engine or on google you would be amazed of how a lot of these topics have been covered on the corvette forums, monte carlo forums, and the turbobuick forum. Its just simply putting up with certain lazy people.
Another reason I started this thread is because I've noticed a recent flood of noob members here on the forum. I want it to be know that there is a search engine and if you are going to ask a question, then please be specific. Were not trying to scare you away or tear your head off. Most of us older members up here are very good about answering your specific questions. Like me, If I don't see the functional purpose of a certain part, then I'm gonna tell you. Yeah a scoop and a fart can muffler is nice, but what the hell is the purpose. Is it a want or a need? I did that once where I thought one of those skull rearview mirrors from walmart would look badass in my malibu, in the end it looked like I was some white julio on the southside of san antonio. Man did I feel dumb.
As far as the other forums and their tolerances compared to this one, this is one of the most tolerant forums I've ever seen on the net. You go to some of these other ones, they get pissed if you don't list extensive details of your setup or car.
I'm not gonna sit by and not answer a question if I know the answer to it. If I don't answer it, then Joe Blow out in Bodunkville is gonna do something stupid because someone might give him the wrong information. Sometimes, these questions involve serious health risks that if you don't say for instance " Be careful when removing the front springs because..." this or this can happen then you put that person at risk. I may hate answering another monotonous question, but if it keeps that person safe and from wasting their money, then I will answer it.
