I got some new pics this morning.

This is the view from the big bay door.


Our only 4-Post lift. This thing is hoss enough to lift F-250's and other big diesel trucks.


Two more new lifts next to the 4-Post, along the back wall.


Our newly completed dyno pit.


This is what Mikey has been calling the 'Horsepower Development Room'. This is where the dyno computer will go. It is complete with viewing window so the customer can be in the room while we tune his/her car.


I got some other pics of the customer lounge area, the employee lounge area (complete with fireplace and stripper pole), and the new showroom. I'll post those later today.

Enjoy!!!

There was an accident involving some red Gatorade and our Moser pricing guide. I should have my new guide here tomorrow.

Hey Mike, I PM`d ben. When does it look like to pull my motor. David at MTI has it sold. The guy is going to pick it up from G-Force and bring to MTI for install. Also I want to send the tranny to Century for a upgrade to stage 2 to handle the power. Let me know, I told him he could probably pick it up in about 10-14 days. What do you think so I can let him know, Thanks! I can`t wait to see this thing run!!

Is there a prize for the Highest HP on the dyno day? Both 67MM turbo's come's in today at 3 or 4 for the Vette. All the hot side is almost all ran and probely a month or two for the cold side then the tune. Jk forged 346 still in the works and alittle nitrous to top it off.
