Drivetrain Humor For The Day

I don't normally post links to ebay auctions, but some of you guys oughta back me up on this one by sending this blithering fool a few messages. I sent him a message telling him it's a 7.5" ten bolt rear, and he swears it's an 8.5" because it has a 1 1/4" pinion nut! I don't think he's too savvy at mathematics either. He says he did the math on the tooth count and came up with a 2.93 ratio. Send this fool a few messages telling him he really needs to lay off the crack pipe. Lol. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=260081313153

He must've gotten the point. He sent me another reply saying he wasn't trying to be a smartass or anything, but that he just didn't know thirdgen f-bodies too well. I said it's all good, no worries on my end. He sure argued his points pretty hard before I called on you guys for backup though. Lol.
