'80s and early '90s American cars are the WORST when the engine is metric but
the body is still SAE. Never know which tool to grab.

Metric crept slowly inta GM when they first started playing with
toada. I don't have enough fingers and toes to count how may times i
heard "the US will convert to metric by 19xx." And none of it came to
