yeah but they also made the 350 diesel, and no amount of convenient crossword clues can make up for that.

the olds diesel would have been fine with just a moderate bump up in headgasket and head bolt strength. their dumbass move was not reinforcing _anything_ and thats how domestic manufacturers successfully murdered diesel tech in passenger cars for 25 years

i know chevy (and presumably GMC) also put them in a few half ton pickups. i recall reading that there were warning stickers in the cabs, warning drivers that the engines weren’t suitable for towing. idk. might apocryphal.

Good for boost and all that, especially in the bad old days before aftermarket blocks were plentiful

my feet have been hurting for a few months. the past few days my knuckles have been hurting. now the largest joints in my toes are feeling the same way, and my left shoulder aches. today finger joints other than my largest knuckles in my hands started hurting. it seems as if I have arthritis now, and it hurts when it gets cold. I do not recommend this.

quote:Symptoms of gout include severe pain, redness, and swelling in joints, often the big toe no redness, no swelling, not my big toe. there’s pain. which is also a symptom of regular arthritis, which is much more common wait, do you think that all joint pain is gout? lol

speakin of the gout, i'm pretty sure i have it in my left big toe. i don't normally drink beer but the other night after drinking a sixer, i woke up like 3 hours before i normally do and my toe was killing me. i had to pull my blanket up because it hurt just having it resting on there. i have to quit drinking completely on sunday anyway so hopefully this doesn't happen again. i can't go to the doctor for it though because i'm leaving CA and my insurance is void outside of the state.

Man I got the 'Golfers Elbow' on the inside of my right arm and its totally ruining my sikk gainz at the gym... Srs its a weird affliction as it's a really exact and specific range of motion that will trigger it, every other exercise is fine but anything bicep-curl based, here come the pain. I'm going to look like one of those bros who skip leg day, only inverted
