Question it is a stinking chevy motor

I put SS badges on my Alero when I bought it and Oldsman just loves to give me shit. It's a Chevy motor in my car for cryimg out loud! Besides it makes a lot of people look at my car and they always say "That's cool they made an Alero SS" What do you think?

yes, take them off. its just as bad as putting a V-Tech sticker on your car, it isnt a model of your car. Chevy makes SS cars, not Oldsmobile...

yeah, not cool dude.

However, if you have the V6, and you get the parts (ie: ram air intake, slightly more aggressive transmission, suspension components) that the GAGT has and the Alero doesn't have, I'd say GT badges are justified.

I think the way you worded your poll question may have confused people, I bet no one voted to "keep them"

Its not cool because they didn't make an Alero SS. There is a guy in my town with "Alero GT-R" decals on the side of his Alero, and it is just as lame. Anyways, what was the point of this thread other than flame bait? You already knew that the stickers sucked.

If I Can shoehorn a 455 Olds on a Toranado transaxle with the 4-barrel and dual exhaust could I badge it a 442?

no. only an actual Cutlass that came with the 442 package from the factory can be a 442. Even if you restored a Cutlass and did the 442 package to it, it would still be considered just a clone. Rebadging is lame. You see, badging is meant to let people know what kind of car you drive. If you just change the badging, you're just lying to anyone who sees your car. Its basically like Michael Jackson trying to be white.

I Agree... However when the schmuck in the Honda see OSV or GLS they don't Know what the eff that is... at least SS is almost known by the whole world. Besides eff the factory, If they would have put the Alero together properly in the first place the bastard would have came with a motor worth a shit to begin with!!!!! SORRY.... I've been a little pissed at my car
