Yep, there is quite a large LSx crowd here in Jax. Maybe EFIAlchemy will be having a meet up at the shop. Good times are to be had up there!

Your in luck, we most likely will have a meet in the time frame you are visiting, keep your eye's on the board here.

We are about 6 miles south of NAS Jax, straight down 17

Yeah you'll be staying about 5-10 minutes from EFI depending on the traffic. We always meet up on saturdays for some fun if that's your thing too
