There a bit of a soft lot over there at LS1.com. They just banned me cause I had an opinion on the thread' holden make the worst 6 cyl' I'm sick to death of the hold-on boys going on about how great their V8( which is imported from uncle chev)is and how lame our V8 is. so I simply stated that holden have never produced from scratch a decent engine of there own and there all kidding themselves. BANG! Banned for 7 days! No warning nothing. Must have really hit a nerve there! These days you hardly see a commodore V8 with holden badging on it, its been replaced by the more desirable chev emblem. Theres no point going on about the sixes as we know how good fords have always been compared to the other mobs shite!

And this place can be just as bitchy, they have their product that they support just like our's, as off late there seems to be a lot off dribble come into this place, and to tell you the truth, if I was a mod and someone started a thread the same as you have described you did on an opposistion site, I would have banned you just the same, why do you feel you need to flame them on their soil, some people need to grow up.

I never started the thread just said a few home truths on at least pg 4. Having a forum is all about everyone's different opinions, just because some of opinions arn't what you want to hear, grin and bear it or delete the truth maker because there stirring the pot a little bit. When It comes to growing up a grown up person would reply to the paragraph with their point of view, not behave like a spoilt child and ban the person who has their own opinion.

A troll is a troll no matter which brand he supports, i have seen some shockers from our camp over there recently.
They are usually quite reasonable with the moderation on LS1.com Edit: I know who you are over there now, the ban does not surprise me at all. Last edited by Falcon Coupe; 25-04-2008 at 07:30 PM. |

Don't shoot me but I thought the 308 was a good engine, well thats what I keep reading? The 308 is the Holden designed 5.0L, yes? As compared to the 304 or 307.
Did Ford Aus design the Falcon 6 from scratch? I thought it was derived from the American engine in the XK? And the 302C from the 351C? Just adding perspective

i'm not one to poo hoo any one brand. but i will burr up a bit if someone suggests their car is better or faster just because it is their preferred brand.
now if they list the mods they have done, the hours they've spent with a spanner in hand, well i'll judge the car on its merits not a badge. as far as my limited knowledge and memory serves me correct, the only truly Aust ford engines are the 250 2V and the twin over head cam "Barra" 6. however as i've stated before on the forum, if i'm wrong i'll be corrected. |

I have no hesitation supporting LS1, moderators or admins.
We both have grown in the same time frame and dealt with trolls the same way No need for this thread.
