Thanks guys' I have heard nothing but good so far about Mike Norris. I can't wait to finally meet him and do business with him. I am pretty sure I won't be dissapointed. It's just really nice to Finally have a shop close to home that we can all go to and get done what we need. And the fact that he's willing to go that extra mile to make everything RIGHT, Means alot in my Oppinion.

BTW Smith, Car looks nice... I saw the thread of the engine being built, tuned and etc. The pics were killer and so were the numbers (all across the board on the engine dyno)

Thanks guys. After a long wait the car is finally coming together. Just a few things left and it should be done (at least for a month or two LOL!!!)

Yeah I know how the waiting game goes.
And especially all of the MINOR PITA things....
(They really suck) *Theres nothing like having your tuner come all the way down from Kokomo on a Sunday and the damn car won't turn over. Security light was flashing and after about 3 hours of playing with the thing before Chad got here, I discovered the problem was in my hand... The damn chip in the key was broken on 1 side.

But it's always worth it in the end!

How much for the mount and balance? Im wanting to use the sticky weights so they dont show.

How much would welding the brackets in run? Im gonna throw the LCA's on when I put the wheels on, if I could weld I could do the rest lol. Ill just have to unbolt them real quick for whoever welds on the brackets.

At my shop, For Mounting and Balancing with sticky weights we charge $20 each wheel! I may be able to get it done for $15 each if I say they are for family.
As for welding in the LCA's I'll have to check tomorrow and LYK! When do you need them done?

Just LMK what you wanna do and I'll lyk a price tomorrow on the welding part of it!

sounds good to me on the wheels, as soon as i have them i can bring you the wheels and tires. i got the wheels but its gonna be a week or so on the tires.

as for the brackets, they are the weld in UMI ones, i have the instructions, it says to cut the clips that hold the ebrake cable, weld on the brackets, then weld the clips for the cable back on to the new brackets. i havent been under there to look yet. so thats what id need done, then ill just hit it with some paint later on. itll have to be after the car is drivable again though with wheels and tires on it.
