LMAO... 16hours?

What part of it do you think you can't do yourself?

The only "hard" part is taking the valve cover off to drill out for the oil drain. Beyond that it's a piece of cake.

Like I have stated though, YOU MUST GET A TUNE. The Vortech tune is complete *****. While you are at it, add a 12lb pulley, shorter belt, and fuel pump. You will have a truck that will beat most of these twinscrew/root's boys.

Save the labor money, do it yourself, and buy an electric fan setup and gears. Hook up decently on a good night and you will have a mid 13 second or faster truck.
