If they're still scared you can offer to pull 2 wires off LOL!

Got the 540 in the works today for the 71 Camaro and its heading to the A1 Professional Autobody tomorrow, and I hope to be squeeze'N the trigger on some Kandy Kolor by the weekend! Did I mention a 540 with a Procharger? Look out Fuggers! 1000whp and 2850lb 4 link car, well you get the idea.........
