About hwy 32 and 3 mile road.Thanks, I'll keep your offer in mind!I don't plan on opening the engine anytime soon, but was thinking about going bbt28 in the near future. The shop I'm having do the install told me about a guy that has one and wants to go larger, so I may have to snatch in up. Whats your HP goal?

these pics do need updated tho... i have since removed all power steering components... with the skinnies on this beast, its gonna be OVER responsive, id rather have some feel in the wheel than have it all over the place and hard to control if something were to happen going down the 1320

I think he means east side of milwaukee. The shop is located in south milwaukee. And Donny's the reason I went with a CA, his passion for that motor is strong

Heres an old shot of mine. Im from the Chicago area so im not that far away from you guys. It would be cool to see that red ca powered s13 or any CA powered car.
