You piqued my interest so I looked it up on rockauto. Oh my! Now that's funny! Ha ha ha! If you have a gutter mind it's definitely not site appropriate!  ;D

Ha ha ha! I knew it would get you to laugh! That was pretty creative on werewolfx13's part to come up with something like that! It makes one wonder why the engineers come up with the designs they do! Was somebody in the Toyota plant bored or have a sense of humor? You can almost make up any story you want to go along with that! But it's still good for a nice juvenile laugh!

Its a prank played on new hires, much like asking for a water pump for a 67 corvaire. My favorite is when somone from another store tries to prank one of us and gets the wrong part, either wrong motor, wrong vehicle, or the like.

As far as those two part numbers, they are both nuclear related, but in a comical way, especially for those who remember watching a certain series of movies as they came out.

I figured it was some kind of gag. The part numbers made me laugh! As did the water pump gasket. A water pump for a 67 corvaire is a good one too. I swear the stuff on this site really makes me baw haw sometimes.
