I worked for a company out of mount pleasant mi . Stayed across the street from the casino when i was there. What do you do there in flint? They guys have me talked into coming up there during winter. Being from Ga our winters are night and day. Oh and might I suggest building a 4l80e. 4l60e's are just not beefy.
