Well he only charge me $40 to weld my cut out on, that included putting the car on jack stands, taking the exhaust off, cutting a section out, welding the cutout on, and putting it all back together. Thats just for reference on price and work. Hes welded a few oil pans up for my roomate pretty cheap as well. If your interested lmk when you think youd want to get it done.

Well the car is in storage right now so it may be a month or so but I'll definitely give him a call and see what the scoop would be.

I might stop by. I'm usually fairly disappointed at the end so maybe not.

i was thinking of taking my vette down to the show and stopping by DynoSport on the way back to home to finish up the MAF-WOT part of tuning. I think 66lemans might be taking his Firehawk to. Mainly just waiting to see what the weather and work will do.
