Ok i hope people dont get pissed at me but i gotta ask. Everytime i watch a v8 fiero video on youtube theres some guys there bashing either archie or cletus, or just bashing the v8 owner themselves. So, can someone give me a rundown on why they are doing this?

There was a bit of an unfortunate history between Archie (Cletus) and some of the former members of PFF.

Archie and some of the Fiero enthusiasts don't get along as it were ..Personally I think the smallblock chevy is a very viable swap and has more total potential than most if not all of the others due to the fact that it is the most popular engine in the workd and its overwhelming aftermarket support. Being a nonconformist sports car purist myself, I think nothing short of a Ferrari engine in a Fiero will do in the end so... $&*I^ ya all ;D

Call them what you want, but when someone has nothing better to do the search the Internet for anything V8 and Fiero just to bash it I call that a troll.
We all have our favorite swap for what ever reason, why do people feel the need to bash someone else's. Its old and immature, asking them to stop has done nothing and only resulted in my removal of the youtube videos of my car.
I don't care for the pollution, there are more important things in life.

Yeah - wht he said!

I'm about to pull my V8 vid, too, because they are annoying, like mosquitos. Their only purpose in life is to mate with another pest and make little pests that will pester our children.

Too bad there is no "Cletus-hater RAID" to get rid of them.

While there is more than 1 person out there who doesn't like Archie, most of the "Cletus" bashing you see online is from Shaun Hammit from RFT.
Shaun tried to get a job working for Archie years ago and Archie turned him down. Ever since then he's done nothing but ***** and complain about anything he can find that Archie does.

A previous PFF member who caused many threads to go down into flames was banned.
With the aid of a few other banned members he started another forum and is for some reason, obsessed with slamming Archie and SBC V-8 Fiero's. He spends many hours reading posts here and making fun of them on the other forum as well as seeking out anything SBC V-8 related just to slam them.

Archie's first name is Cletus and he somehow thinks this annoy's Archie.

He only does it because he craves attention. As Jake state's he is nothing but a "Troll" and since he cannot troll here, He seeks out places he can.


Just ignore it.

I'm was curious too. I noticed Shawn (some punk from Daytona, FL) was bashing Archie on my youtube video posts. I was thinking of asking this question too and driving to Daytona to whoop some...

Why would people bash V-8 Fieros?
I could see if someone were installing a motorcycle engine or similar in a Fiero and maybe pure enthusiasts might not really be into it but the Fiero people I have met have pretty open minds about upgrades to a Fiero and I think a V-8 can be considered a viable upgrade.
