The guy that tunes for my shop is named Rick Chapa. Known him forever and he has never disappointed. Corrected many of the "other guys" that are "the best". Lol.

Lol, not going to publicly bash anyone. I don't mind probable conversation but we have had to fix other shops work more than once.

Was not much different. Little cleaner but that's about it. I should have taken a video before the customer alert.

This grind is as big as I would go unported heads. The stage 2 is better for those not needing the exploit the upper RPM as badly. But, we did this knowing the customer would be back for ported heads later. Unported is fine, but there is plenty left on the table.

This is a 18 year olds daily driver. The drivability depends on your tuner. The owner and his dad were surprised after my tuner did his job. The said it drives like stock when not in the throttle.

It is a stock 60 with a 3600 converter. Stock rear gear. The trans broke, so now time to upgrade that.
