Default Motor is in!!!

I just pick up my car this morning after a long agonizing wait. It drives great. I'm very happy with my choice. Now I have to get the thing broken in so I can get it tuned. I'll be sure to update my progress!

The guys at A.R.T. in Buda did a great job on the install. Everything was put back exactly the way it was before. I went with a small/mild cam with this setup. It's a little bigger than my previous 228/232 so, power is instant. Can't wait to see what she puts down.

Thanks again, To the guy at Texas Speed and A.R.T.
