WOW you have some major Skilllzzzz

I have an appointment on the 29th of June at the Mustang Shop in Kent to finally get the Camaro full throttle tuned and will know how much power the rebuilt LSA engine produces.

About 18 months for the Dart 427ci to be ready to drop in.

Awesome cant wait to see what it makes

Vicster · 06-30-2021, 11:19 AM

I left work this morning and went to the Mustang shop, I was just going to wait around for them to open. When I got there the place was overrun with police and FBI.

I was able to talk to an employee real quick, he said that they had come in early as they left work early yesterday due to the heat. He overheard one of the official type persons with a badge saying where is all the money... Needless to say no dyno today, do not know if they closed down the shop...

But no dyno today...

UPDATE: Well it seems that someone there was under investigation and included in a 2 year sting operation for drugs and gun running. According to a local news source 45 places in Washington were hit by the police and the feds.

After installing everything and hitting the road again, the car felt wrong... The ass end was unpredictable! So I took it into Hankook Tire in Lynwood again, after discussing my issues and how I wanted it to handle with the owner. The mechanic went to work on the suspension, THEY NAILED IT AGAIN!!!

Man it feels and handles like a dream, my baby is back!!

Hello,

Thank you!!! If I can just get the car on a dyno would be a big step to finish the engine that is in it. I think we all want to see what it can do!

morepowerjoe · 08-02-2021, 11:32 AM

That thing is freaking nice!

Did they say anything about the 2650 version?
