Tick Performance in Mooresville (sponsor), Williams Performance in Mooresville, or Zeus Performance in Charlotte are all very good shops.

I will back that up. I can't vouch for Williams performance. I have personally dealt with Tick Performance and Zeus Performance, and they are both great shops with quality people.

Joey and Jonathan at Tick are first rate guys. Joey will set you up and get you all taken care of during the orderin process, and Jonathan is the MAN when it comes to turning wrenches. You wont be dissapointed.

I will also vouch for Zeus. The two that own it are good friends and know their Fbodies and charge very reasonable rates for work. They are the only people I know I would give the keys to my car and let them take it where ever they please. lol


Oh, and Mount Holly, NC outside of Charlotte.

I don't have a F-Body, but I do live in NC...so I at least got half of the requirements


I live in Hampstead, which is halfway between Wilmington and Jacksonville.


Just in case you don't know me....I like long walks on the beach, pizza, cold beer in the jar and racing

That explains its then, lol I was only 16 tho at the time, driving my little v6 firebird, drooling over every t/a I seen. And I remember seeing your and I actually missed one whole green light staring at it lol. I believe that was at the intersection of lenior rhyne and hwy 70. And thanks guys for all the other shops around the area that deals with fbodys. Their is a new little import shop in hickory called blue ridge motorsports, who claim to the end of the world that the little civic they have runs 800 horses, which would mean they are pushing 200 horsepower out of every cylinder. Never seen them dyno it either lol. So it looks like the damn import scene is about to get alot bigger in the hickory, area.

They are full of it. they have had that car for 4 years now making those claims but will not run any one with it. I tried on night at the tire shop just to even get it to a track to see but no dice.

Burn'Em - nice talking to you and your wife a few weekends ago at Sonic. The new paintjob on your wife's TA is sweet. I'll be at AutoFair too with my SOM SS with the Charlotte F-body club. Not sure where our spots are. See you there.
