If I only posted facts, I'd rarely ever post.
By Dave Shoe - 01/12/2002 12:37:11 PM; IP 216.243.158.15
Fortunately, plenty of others can offer facts, so these forums offer a value anyway.

I may sound like I'm presenting "production line" facts, but that's just my writing style. I'm actually presenting "post facto" information. Bit's of info mixed with opinion and irony.

I'm honestly not prepared to completely believe anybody on the GT-E front, but I do hold out hope, and I continue to keep my eyes open, for a two-bolter 427 sighting. I believe the person I spoke to ran an established GTE registry or something similar, so the story had some weight to it. Until I speak to the right Engine Plant machinist (This was not a foundry anomaly), or inspect one of these GT-Es myself, I won't know for sure.

In the future, if perple request genuine facts on this topic, I'll be sure to refer them to you. Thanks for the update.

Shoe.
