[QUOTEahaha did Eddie mention that I can do motor swaps also ![/QUOTE]

i think you told me that when we met at the track a few weeks ago i have been pondering the idea. just havent been able to find out a good quote or estimate. if the price is better than building a 383 might be an option

In all seriousness, I would take anything to Matt rather than somebody :eyesroll: in Pasadena anyday. Only thing is he is fixing to get hitched so you guys are going to have to share his time with his significant other. Matt, djjab57 was/is the guy that was with us in the parking lot at Baytow a few weeks ago.

James, I may still be slow but at least I am closing the gap.

Easton, when the h3ll are you going to believe me when I say that I'm putting the stock cam back because the cam I had was a torqer cam made for trucks? (Matt sabataged me).

Gunner at Patriot, thanks for prompt response as well, people and even business's with impecable reputations are allowed to make mistakes too right?
