Bo White, but he isn't doing them full time anymore. Look up Cammin_BeaSSt, he does them too and its great work.

I used to do them here and there, but now I just have a few cores sitting in my garage that I'll probably port and sell in the FS section. I don't have time with school, work coming up, and my twins to port for people. Thats why I recommend Cammin_Beast, Ron does a great job and has a very quick turnaround.

98-99 the bell crank is smaller than the 00-02. if a 00-02 is put in place of a 98-99, than the car will be @ like 3500rpm's when started.
