o_O What is your engine installer DOING? If its 13k for the engine and then 8k install? O_o Or is the 13k a "third" engine?

Could you give me the contact info for your seats, I've been wanting to get them but can't get ahold of Rich. Could you shoot me an email? thepawn@atlantis.edu

I lost count how much I've spent cleaning/washing, but now I need to get repainted on parts so that'll go up a few decimal places. Sometimes I'm beside myself that I've spent this much and have barely done any engine perfomrance mods, lol.

A created a webpage w/ my mods, pricing, and links. Most of the labor was done myself or the help of friends....so the only labor included is the machine work and engine installation.

Hopefully my wife doesn't see this!

Probably missed a few things.......
