    In no way am I saying they are all bad Nathan. Im sure you wouldnt of tried to hand me a bolt the size a your pinky finger and claim it was the bolt for the crank pulley. THEN begin a arguement on how Im dumb and your smart cause your looking at a computer. And ducky and Tyler that is the EXACT plan. If he still works there when the manager is done.

    CHECK this. So today I got my bolt in from my local dealership. Well I drive down show it to them. The, what I thought was smart, manager says well I see how he could mistake it. This part number is for a Ls1. Im like NO SH*T. This part number pulls up the ls1, 5.3, 4.8, and 6.0, I guess both the dewtards thought I was stupid enough to not research how their lil system worked at the other dealership while he was ordering my bolt. Freaking morons. I wont deal with them again. Their dumb. And they hate admiting their wrong. No one go to Bastrop LA for any Chevy warranty work. They use the wrong sized bolts. Obviously.

    Huh? I think I got the gist but what happened again? You got the bolt from them and then went down there to show it to them? Research how what system works? They must suck as my sucky shop stocks that bolt RIGHT MOZE?

    I had my Local shop order the bolt for me. This shop is a town over. They claimed they had them in stock is why I went down there. When I got the bolt in I had to drive though that town to go help one of my friends So I dropped by to show them the RIGHT bolt. And they tried to act like well this part number isnt even for a 5.3 its for a ls1. When I say researched the computer system when I orderd it from my local place I was back there with the parts guy having him look up the bolt EVERY way we could think to see if we could ever pull up the completely wrong motor/bolt to explain their error. The part number for the crank bolt is listed as the same for a ls1, 5.3, 4.8 and 6.0 and it also has l33, lm7, lq4, etc as ways to look up the SAME bolt. My local parts guys exact phrase was " I have no idea how they came up with the wrong bolt unless they just looked up the completely wrong truck "

    Man, I thought you knew better than to go top Bastrop anyway.. Especially after they had my old Cobalt SS 17 times in 7 months and never fixed it..
