Default Now exclusively...

We now exclusively have Mike Hornback as our tuner here at the shop. He is the same tuner that has been here since day one so dont think we went out and got someone else He will be answering the phones most of the time so if you call and ask for Mike you'll have to be slightly more specific. You either get me, or the tuner... We're happy to beable to have him here for a full time addition since we are a lot busier then we were a year ago. You will still beable to talk to me and Nick as usual but Mike H. will be the frequent phone voice!

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask us and we will try to cover the boards more often. His new screen name is Tuner@straightline as well

Thanks!

WORD!

Hard to find guys that are GOOD on LT1's. I know or one shop in NC thats very good but thats a DRIVE lol.

Most shops also don't have the LT1 liscence or whatever so its costs and arm and a leg. To much money in the LSX market lol.
