When you have a Vortec 5.7 and the first thing you think of with a rough idle is lower intake gaskets and a bad fuel injection spider :'(

When you can hear a starter from across a parking lot and know it's a GMT360 without even looking.

Time for a revival!

You want to throat punch a GM engineer anytime you want to fix something.

When you're packing a breaker bar, bernzomatic propane torch, or some sort of penetrating fluid to remove the rear diff fill plug.

It's easier and cheaper to tune crap out instead of actually fixing it.

You realize that even a Chevy truck drives better than Ford's best car, so you own both :biggrin:

You know more about your truck than the engineers that designed it.

When you have to explain to your friends why you need a body lift and why you can’t add more than three inches of suspension lift.

The fix for all issues is cleaning the throttle body and replacing the ignition switch.
