Smitty, I did give AZPS a call this morning before you were in. I picked the short block up from Basko this evening, it looks great. Going to try and get it put in the car this Friday so I will be able to have the car all together in time for the 26th. Working everyday leaves little time for play, but I am going to do my best. What kind of Deposit is required? Is tuning done at AZPS on 10th place? Will I need to have my nitrous bottle filled prior to arriving or can they be filled while getting set up? Also are slicks ok or do I need street tires?

I'll need the entire amount in advance.... we spoke about it already.

We'd actually be doing the dyno tune down between ray and chandler off of the I 10. It wont hurt to have your nitrous filled first, but give us a call a few days prior if you'd like. Hopefully we'll have our nitrous refill station set up by then. either slicks or street tires are fine. whichever you prefer.

I've tried to get a hold of NIC but never a Reply. I just need a few non DYNO tune fixes. Shift points.
