With a 390 w/*****, just remove the oil filler cap and count the camshafts! And beyond that, keep your hands off of that motor.

thank you.

the sad part is that there is SPELL CHECK, and you get a
little squiggly line under stooopid words.

and you can put the cursor over them, and right mouse
click, and get the correct spelling.

what we are dealing with here, is people too stupid to know
how stupid they are.

an old saying applies: "pigs don't know pigs stink."

as for the 390, maybe it's a 427 cammer? they made fifty of them...

Wow, no capitals. Only capitals are in the shout words "SPELL CHECK."
Oh, never mind, "i got to go wash my pig."
Does this count?

Thread where this idiotic response was posted, has to do with inoperative horns on 1966 Camper Special.
U need to change out your steering column with a used one from the parts yard. It is worn, reason for not conducting electrical current.
