If my son blows up the engine or grenades the tranny, I should be able to get close to my money back in scrap value. It's actually in decent shape since it was always garaged. But the shifter is super mushy so I need - yes, need - a short shifter for it.
That's a great idea for a car to teach on! I want to see it!

I bought a 92 S-10 to let kris drive for $500. Proved to worth it's cost ten-fold. It's a great little truck to haul mulch and wood. I use it around the property. It's ugly but starts every time. 248,000 miles on the little V6 5 speed.

You've been rather active here as of late!

I too pass through NKY to Cinci everyday!

I like the 4 weeks idea and "break in time"

I feel it's a bit early but I'll have my list to you so you can watch for deals. Also, I need cam help! I do like JDs a lot. I want a boost friendly setup, that also favors torque increase over HP.

You prefer email or on here?

Like we talked about yesterday, it's a fall thing but that damn nick got me going!

I'm not sure they do imports. My buddy wanted his 370Z tuned but they didn't have the software.

Wouldn't hurt to ask.


JD... Lmao! I suppose you are going to cost me a few bucks. . The way your car sounds...

CincySpeed built the camaro, the corvette and I believe the 300 at easystreet. I'm not sure if they are claiming them as their own builds but I assure you, they are not.

CincySpeed didn't do the flame paint on the Camaro or the Flags on the Corvette but unless Tim and his boys changed it, under the hood is all CincySpeed.
