Are there any good machine shops that work on lsx motors for a good price? PTS built my last one, expensive. They were supposed to call me back last week and never did, I don't want to wait two months for a build like last time anyway. Anybody good within driving distance? Thanks.

My gauge does bounce around a lot with this motor. I'll be out of town for a month. When I get back, I'll bring it by for some adjustments, Todd. I am gonna run it Friday. Anybody want to meet up and cruise to the track?

He had his Windows down but I couldn't get beside him because of a gay civic and s10 driving slow and side by side. I was meeting up with someone so didn't try to run him down in my truck.

Hey,

Does anyone know of any shops that offer the best deals on tires around here? I've never ordered any off the internet before and I would prefer to pick them up. Any help is appreciated.....

Thanks

Yep, tirerack has some damn good prices. Their warehouse is over off Mansfield rd. and Hollywood behind the UHaul.
