^^^I would highly recommend as soon as possible. My car is not running at full potential at the moment, I can tell it is struggeling. I would have gotten a tune here, but I knew I was going to be leaving and wanted to be able to go back to the same place when I did all my internal stuff to the motor.

gyrene, its working good, I have yet to have any problems with it.. Knock on Wood. lol. Hey I talked to Socalmach, we are probibly going to meet up here next week and run the cars. 01Camaro was wanting to go also. I think Socalmach already has a camera man. He also owns an F-bod. So hopefully I will beat him, or atleast put up one hell of a fight.

I think he is full bolt-ons, plus gears, and possibly a tune. So his car is probibly pretty quick. I am hoping I have a little more edge than what I am expecting, but I am not going to be over confident and end up getting killed. lol.

If you guys want a good tune e-mail Jeff @ carolina auto masters. Ask him when he will be coming back up to abacus racing. He needs a minimum of 3 cars before he will come up. $300 for the tune and $75 for the dyno time. Or just drive to his shop and pay $300. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my car. Just my .02.

I would do that, but I leave in a little over a week. So. There would be no time, and or point in me doing one here on the east coast, when I will be over in the Seattle area.

Hey 01Camaro well I raced gyrene a few weeks back and he stuck with me good. But I had about a 75 pounds of aluminum block in the back of my car, and I had a really bad Vacuum leak, at least I think it was leaking at that time. lol. I only had pulled a car on him, and he stayed with me. from a 55 punch. He had a passenger, but he is also a vert. So we were pretty dead even.

Hey I was thinking about buying a K-member for my car.. I was wondering, what else should I get or do I have to get to do the swap, I figured I would get new motor mounts, but what about bushings? Shocks/Springs? Anything else needed to do the swap or what? Whats your thoughts?

well im obviously in, the guy who was gonna do it with me's name is Raise on here, he has an 02 now but hes had a list of full-bolt-on f bods, im suprised he has never posted in these threads. Anyway, he is doing bolt-ons right now and then said he has a friend, who is on here but i forgot his name, who tunes his cars and was gonna do ours, so ill let him know, but im tryin to get this done cause i just found out today im leaving with my company on june 1st to go to west point in NY and we arent getting back until friggin August 15, THATS THE WHOLE DAMN SUMMER! I want to do this before i bounce, cause i need one, and crazylane, thanx for not bashing me about that race, but if we were going at it from a dig, i think the outcome would have been alittle different!(YANKSS3600 FTW)

I talked to him earlier this week about the whole thing about him coming down and he said he needed three people. the only thing is that my Car - motor won't be done until like 2 1/2 weeks.... And it is in maryland. But if yall are willing to wait that long. Count me in!
