Hey man i just came from Drum, basically be prepared to learn to do everything yourself. All the shops around there dont know **** about f-bodys and their labor rates are ludicrous for lack of experience. I was there 6 years and just bought the manuals or checked in here to figure out how to do all my mods.

I believe Albany had the closest Dyno shop around. And syracuse gets a mobile dyno on the fairgrounds like once a year i think, but i never used either.

Good luck
Jerry

hopefully ill have my SS up here by the end of april, then every so often, ill be at the auto craft shop tweaking and tuning it. Oh and I also have a supercharger to install. However i wont be around in nov/dec myself, we'll be deployed by then and my car will be back home in NJ in its bubble(inflateable car capsule, lol).
