i guess my point was that if it comes out of a corvette, then it's a corvette motor. otherwise, it's a GM crate motor with a corvette motor cover on it (unless you got it out of a camaro or a GTO or an SS truck). they do make the motor cover in other styles, and i guess these days you could get one to say what ever you want, like "LS1" or something that makes sense.
another thing that irks me is the word trick. there actually is a company that calls itself trick flow, so to say "get a set of trick heads" to me means to go to that company, but that is not what the user means. or a set of trick wheels. using trick like that has absolutely no meaning whatsoever, and for me it just makes the user seem retarded. the best part, though, is when i see it in a magazine. that's when i let my subscription lapse.
there are others that i agree with. others irk me to some degree, still others that i don't even think about when they are used as stated. i am still waiting for someone to bring back "common sense"...
