It's foreign jargon to me

Posted by: Terrance

Ok so I am a newbie and don't know, have a good laugh, but I don't even know what LSC stands for let alone MAF, EMC, SCT and others. I figured out LMS for Lincoln motor sports and RWHP fr real world horsepower so some of it is decipherable but unless one is a grease monkey it's a tough call, even some of those parts that are refered to in jargon sound like greek to me. Can anyone put a little chart together with terms and definitions for newbies. Thanks in advance.

MAF - Mass Air Flow
RWHP - Rear Wheel HorsePower
SCT - Superchips Custom Tuning
EMC - You got me
LVC - Lincoln Vs. Cadillac (couldn't resist)

Just ask when an acronym pops up in a thread that you're unsure of.

Knowledge is power.

Hey Unstoppable...
What a quote, must have taken me at least 10 minutes to regain my composure from laughing at it. I can't believe anything so crude could hit my funny bone so hard. That one tops them all

Thanks, I learned something today. I thought PCV meant Pollution Control Valve. But it actually means Positive Crankcase Ventilation.
