Ahh gotcha,
Yeah that would be a good idea. At least it'd maintain the flow of traffic for a bit.

They could still get around. However, still very ballsy either way.

I hear he is good, just not very knowledgable about newer stuff.

My experience:

"Aluminum block? Ah hell, I haven't worked on one of those. Well, we can bore it as much as you want. Hell, .40 over +."

That was a LS1 I took to him. .40 over? Ha. If you know anything about LS1's, you know that isn't smart.

I've had a fair amount of work done by Hudson's in the past. They do really good work at not so bad prices, even if they don't know all the specs. Just take the engine in there with explicit details and specs on what you want done.

I've had Terry Walters do some work for me in the past. I've been very pleased with the work. Not sure about price, though. Friend of a friend thing so I didn't pay full price.

That's awesome good eye. Although the fucker who ganked mine out of my car ripped the wires out the back of the gauge leaving me no harness to plug a new gauge in anymore. So what do I do? Buy a whole new one?

BTW, the AEM(not sure which one they use, NTK maybe?) sensors tend to not last as long as others(bosch lsu2)...
