ALLEN @ NELSON PERFORMANCE FOR GETTING ME STARTED ON THIS JOURNEY WITH MY FIRST TUNE AND FOR LAUGHING WHEN I SAID I "WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING AS DRASTIC AS A CAM OR TORQUE CONVERTER", VIRGIL, GREG, MIC, TYLER FOR ALWAYS HELPING WITH YOUR TIME, KNOWLEDGE, PARTS, ETC., LOUIS GIGLIOTTI FOR THE TIME AND ATTENTION SPENT ON TUNING, AND MOST OF ALL MY WIFE FOR BEING SUPPORTIVE, PATIENT, AND UNDERSTANDING OF MY NEED TO HAVE "A THING".

Thank you...posted another picture that shows everything pretty good.

Yeah I dig the black..... Nice run Not to jack a thread but what is mic runnin? he's lookin fast 2!

He's turbo also...a little more built than mine though, he was right at 700hp. Now he's got it under the knife again shooting for around 1,000. He has severe traction issues as you could tell in the video.

turned out awesome! sorry it was such a bitch for ya at first...

Thanks man...couldn't have done it without ya! :)

Thanks guys...

lsx10 - I'm not sure what an s-truck is?

00ChevyScott - Yes, the headlights and turn signals are off eBay.

...added pics of the 3-piece engine covers. Modified the center cover a little so it was "even" in the front (OCD kicking in...).
