Mavaholic had a great idea about creating acronyms for common terms used http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=8341 The forum software can be set up so cerrtain words can be replaced with other words. Here is a list of words that I wiil added along with their replacements. Feel free to add new ones. CoMav = Comets and Mavericks MavCo = Mavericks and Comets MavCom = Mavericks and Comets mmb = Maverick/Comet Forums Do you think a singular version of the acronyms are required as well?
Acronyms LSD = Limited Slip differential DLD = Detroit locker differential MSD = Mini-spool differential SD = Spool differential EFI = Electronic fuel injection N/a = Naturally aspirated s/c = supercharged t/c = Turbocharged 4L6 = 250 cid. six 33L6 = 200 cid six 28L6 = 170 cid six EM = Exhaust manifold IM??? = Intake manifold P&P = Port and polished ..... NOS = Nitrous oxide ROFL = Rolling on the floor laughing... WTF = What the f***! Just some things off the top of me head.
Nitrous Oxide is N2O. "NOS" stands for Nitrous Oxide Systems, which is a brand name. "MSD" stands for Multiple Spark Discharge, which is also a brand name for the popular ignition system...
I'm sure all of us at some time or another, especially as we're all gearheads, have experienced the acronym taken from the military, FUBAR (****ed up beyond all recognition). (Ask my Joy about FUBAR when I'm trying to set a new world's record in the "across the yard wrench toss") Another we have definately all experienced is SNAFU (situation normal, all ****ed up).
I added the following and will see how it works out(Some gave me trouble). Co.Mav = Comets and Mavericks Mav.Co = Mavericks and Comets Mav.Com = Mavericks and Comets M.C.C.I = Maverick Comet Club To use them, dont include the "dot".
All of this discussion would be no BFD if it weren't for MFs talking about MSD and CBE. So what if your NOS isn't called by that name, but rather N2O? How many BMF have NOS anyway? IMHO I DGAS what anyone has to say about this, the FAQ or the BFQ about what IS an Acronym? What is Acronymophilia? Is it like Necrophylia, but with NOS? I dunno but SFM, I DGAS! This is just my 2CW, but I feel that the NRA, GOP and DNC should all own Mavericks, but not NAMBLA, cause that is a horrible thing. See you all L8TR and LMNYT! Pegasus
Yeah, NAMBLA....not good. But if you gaz don't like what I said about "NOS", then screw you gaz...am going home (someone should burn a lower-case t in your front yard for "TIME to LEAVE"!...
TL, This is all in fun sir. I posted my last post strictly for laughs, not to offend. Hang around, you'll find us all a humoristic bunch. Again sir, no offense meant or intended
