DMV rant - Page 3

Took the Silver C3 in for inspection.

Mind you, it's a 1969 L46 350HP 350, with 11 to 1 compression.

Asshole dweeb at the DMV lets my fucking car idle for 5 minutes before testing it. I watched him do it.

Of course, this is a car that will eventually wet its plugs enough to shut off.

It's not a commuter car.

While the DMV computer requires that they hold your motor at 2500 to test it, he did NOT even clear the thing's throat with a rev beforehand, after letting it drown for five fucking minutes.

Shockingly, I failed emissions.

The guy that moves my car to the end then manages to set the brake insufficiently, and my car rolls off the pad, and half out of the building before he gets it under control.

I asked him to try and not wreck my car.

He went asshole on me.

Me and his manager had a talk afterwards.

He was nice, and professional, but overall, it was NOT a positive experience.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

I have a brand new Tach Drive HEI 60Kvolt fucking "arc welder" ignition, Moroso Blue Max Spiral core wires, a set of hotter R45 plugs, and a factory fresh Holley 4165 spread bore Q-jet replacement that says it fucking goddamn passes next time, no matter what the motherfucking assmunch at the DMV does.
