You're probably right but again a GT500 wouldn't have the horsepower or the extra goodies that mine will. You make a valid point though grasshopper...

But to make it fair... a 5.4 has more potential...and would spend a lot less money in upgrades to destroy your HP numbers... I read an article...where a magazie pushed a GT 500 to well over 600rwhp with just a few changes and not much cash...so in all fairness

Oh, JRod, you're just jealous 'cause they didn't have Mineral Grey when you bought your yellow car. And tell Bob goodnight for me.

Wish I could give an update. The short block was supposed to be done the Saturday afternoon that Tony's car was tuned...didn't happen. SPoke with Kurtis this last Saturday and it was supposed to be done by this morning...didn't happen. Supposedly the short block will be done by tomorrow afternoon...not really holding my breath plus he just left this evening for a 2 week vacation to Disney World in Orlando although his two guys are staying here to work.....

Not a good report at all. Wish I could blow off customers to take a vacation. This story seems the same at many automotive places and there's nothing that can be done... No excuse if you ask me... I'd be just abit P.O'ed for sure.. Hang in there Jeff.... The roads are covered with tree limb debris and salt so cruisin isn't at its best right now anyway!
