There's no question that it's fake.

If you're are talking about the one posted on the net, probably so. It's still an unknown whether BO's is fake since he did not agree to release his official birth certificate. Hence, there's doubt, but no outright proof that I'm aware of. Maybe you have better information?
I was just throwing that out there before for entertainment, I'm not a serious follower of said things.

Well if you choose not to divulge the truth what do you call that?

I get it, I'm saying there's not absolute truth. Privacy can be cited. Since I'm not privvy to documents that say one thing or another I can't say, "yep, he's lying."Or conversely, yep, he's telling the truth." He ain't telling. So we don't know, unless someone is a witness to the smoking gun.

He certainly is dedicated to not telling us. As el numero uno public employee in the US, I don't see how he has the right to keep shit like a birth certificate or college transcripts private.
It's pretty apparent to me that something is being covered up.

Someone I know has an old studebaker with a small chevy 383, was sold as a 550 hp crate engine, I took it apart to replace gaskets and said this is at most a 375-400hp engine and being you stuck shorty headers on it Im betting on the 375 part at most. She flipped out, now im building a 454 that was a crate engine also for her 65 vette and she says it should make 600 hp right? I laughed and explained that the heads are alum but they are not very good(proform) and that with 9.5-1 and a small hyd cam, dual plane intake and exhaust manifold if it made 450 hp I would be surprised. again she was shocked, I shake my head, every body thinks a cam and dual plane gets you 500 hp. Put it on a dyno and it may show 500hp, put it in a car and it will run 16s

And they will never know the dfference. One of the best engines I ever built sits in some wheezer's garage covered in dust and spiderwebs and will rust solid before it ever fires for the first time. No matter really it was built for a stock javelin that will be rusty powder before it gets the engine installed.

While I was out to NAMDRA I got a call and I let it go to voice mail. Glad I did. It went something like this..
Hi I'm JoBlow from somewhere and was wondering if you could rebuild my 304 for my Gremlin. I only need about 325 hp but I don't want it over the top. I mean, I just want a mild cam and intake, nothing radical. Do you think I should run headers?
I didn't even call him back.

Suuuure they did. Show me a dyno sheet. Here you go. PROOF that it can be done. I mean, since I'm posting it on the internet, that makes it rock solid proof right?  |

Oh OK.. I must be doing something wrong. Naaa, I will just blame it on the dyno.. I think if I just double Chuck's dyno results everyone will be happy.
