First off, I went to Plano West and it wasn't hard but I also graduated in 1996, LOL!

Anyways, congrats. I went to University of Texas and had never heard of Texas State, until I met my X-gf. As it turns out her father was then and is still the head of technology down there, his name is Dr. Habingreither (Robert first name) awesome guy! just awesome! Actually, about the time we were going to break up I thought to myself out loud, man at least her Dad is cool....rough huh? but he's that cool!!!

He's built that entire program and really like the small block chevy. He has an engine dyno there at the school and pretty much every piece of machine equipment it takes to do SBC work. I ported my LT1 heads and did all the valve work there during the summer months, that guy taught me SOOOOO MUCH. Coolest part, he had a lift at his fricking HOUSE, a full on, 2 post lift (probably still does) and let me use it as much as I wanted. I used his gas welder to build my first Camaro's 4" exhaust, turned out great.

Anyways, I think your'e going to love it there. Bad news for you, he doesn't' have any more daughters and the one I dated is married but I'm sure you can still make friends with him. One of the COOLIST people I've ever know.
