Is the engine carrying up in the higher rpm's?
It's too bad the weather wasn't better today. Raining where I am.

guys, this car is freaking bad. She pulls like I have never seen. From a dig, no way! From a 40 roll I left 50 feet of rubber before I let out to get her to hook! I punched it at 70 and she will put you in the back seat!! Guys this motor is a mean mother! Thanks to everyone. We haven`t even sprayed the 200 shot yet!!

Just remember that real head porters already have a hell of a lot of people in line before you have ever talked to them. If you are fine with that then you and Mr. Good will probably get along just fine and the wait and price will be well worth it!
If not there's always someone willing to do a faster and worse job for cheaper! I can hook you up with plenty of those "head porters!" Just PM Greg yourself and he can talk to you that way if you want any info.

He's also not a sponsor on here right now and is probably not going to give you any prices on his work publicly since it would depend on what you wanted him to do in reality.

good post Erik........... but if only you knew how hard it is for some of us ADHD impatient fellas to wait..... I think I am doing a pretty good job waitin!! LOL. His price was only 300.00 more than another head porter. This included putting the springs/retainers/guides in. IMO he does not charge significantly more than anyone else. He charges what the job takes. You get what you pay for and then more; apparently based on his feedback.
