Thumbs up Took the plunge

While I'm sitting in Qatar, my wife went to MTI yesterday and put a downpayment on Heads, cam and a yank Converter. It's great when the wife is into modding. Anyway, I have an appointment on 24 Jan to have it all installed. I get home on the 22nd. I ordered thier Stage IIe LS6 heads, Stealth II cam, Yank SS 3200, and yella terra roller rockers. My goal was around 400 RWHP. I don't think I should have any problems reaching it.

These last few days here are really dragging on....

Merry Christmas all..........

From Kandahar Afghanistan to Qatar....Merry Christmas to you too and best wishes for your safe return. Good wife you have, sounds like a keeper, mine does much the same as for getting car stuff for me. You should be happy with the package your getting.

Good luck

Charlie

You will love the combo. But, I'm sure a stock Trans Am would probably feel like a rocket to you right now. Get back home safely!
