Default Took my GTO to LMR!

What can I say, Josh and Steven at LMR are great people. I took my GTO over to them this Monday and they are working on it through this week. I spent a little more than an hour and a half hanging out there this morning after dropping a few things off and all I can say is WOW. It's not too often I feel completely comfortable giving someone else my keys and money and can walk away feeling completely confident that everything will be just fine. I cant wait to drive it when it's done. Here is the list of things they are doing to the car.

Dart 225cc Heads w/ 62cc chambers
Ported Victor Jr. Intake
Edelbrock Fuel Rails w/ 42# injectors
Polished Intake elbow 90mm
Ported 90mm Throttle Body
American Racing 1 7/8 headers
3" catless mids w/ integrated X-pipe
Mandrel bent 3" stainless dual exhaust, Magnaflow mufflers and 3 1/2 Double wall Magnaflow tips built by Josh @ LMR
Underdrive Pulley Kit
Melling oil pump
Double roller timing chain
MSD 8.5mm wires
Comp Cam Hyd. roller XER Lobes .605in-.609exh 238-240 112deg lobe sep.
Trickflow pushrods
Trick flow Double valve springs, locator's, titanium retainers and locks
ARP Head Bolts
Injector Harness adapters
NGK plugs
Dyno Tune

I was up there talking to steven the day they started on it & pulled it in. I'm looking to get some work done to my gto as well & was checking them out. Your car Looked nice & clean (even inside the wheels-behind the spokes)! He was showing me that intake for it

I agree with ya'll, they seem like some good guys there.

Well I got some updated pics from Steven on the exhaust that Josh built. I think it looks great. I will post a short sound clip tomorrow. Lets just say it sounds even untuned!
