Hooker/Holley parts junk

[rocketman]

Man whats with the holley stuff, seems like any brand owned by them sucks. hooker headers dont ft, carbs full of casting residue, clogged jets, no power valves installed.

I'm done with them.. I know they where/are in bankrupcy i guess thats there reasoning for junk products and having it made in china and mexico.

That's what happens to a company when it's run by bean counters instead of car guys.

That seems to be happening to just about anything that used to be no 100% american. WTF. Then certain poeple sit there and point fingers at everybody else, while their toyotas, nissans, beamers, or benz's are sitting in the driveway.

Hey bro, this is a good, clean forum where we all like to have fun and occasionally poke fun at others. But, there is, in my opinion, no place for that kind of language here. I'm talkin about the "bean counters" comment. While you were at it, why don't you just say "watermelon and fried chicken eater" or "white sheet wearer." You are a new guy and probably didn't mean anything by it, but just be cautious of the things you say on here please.

I hope I am missing something here. "Bean Counters" typically refers to Accountants and has no racial implications at all. Help me out here. Unless you are an Accountant and take offense, then, well, OK.

Maybe he is an accountant? A really thin skinned accountant?

Then again maybe hes a really good troll....

To funny, a good friend of mine is a CPA and our labour union treasurer, he has to have thick skin.

Racist? Are you kidding me? Where's your mind at. Why is everything always about race. I don't have a racist bone in my body. If you are jerk it doesn't matter if you are blue green or purple. Jack asses are still pink in the middle. I have never heard that statement used for anything but the tight wads in the accounting office that know little or nothing about the auto parts business. I'm sure a few tight wads are now going to be insulted. I want to say I am sorry in advance.
