[NstyGrnHatch]

yeah 17k is alot, i took out 3k for my motor, but its all paid for now

[Doughboy]

also....Brett said show car.. Not performance How do you put 17k in a car without swapping out the motor with something sweet..

Did you mean show/performance, or just show?

And it wouldn't be worth half of what you put into it, and I'll bet it still wouldn't be done. Because show or performance they are never really finished.

I've heard lots of great stuff about evan know someone personally that had his turbo rex done there. My only complaint with them is if you try to get questions answered it takes a month to hear back, granted i know dudes probbaly pretty busy. But with potential business i would think you get back to customers faster. Took me a month and some change to hear back that neptune doesnt have a n2o controler.

Well i got the block back last night, Honed and hot tanked. I'm call every de3aler in the state to try and get a piston today so i can have the running by sunday, but i don't think that i'm going to find a dealer with one in stock. Anyway i have some cast gray emenal that i'm goign to cast the block/head/ and most of the rest of the engine in bfore i start putting it back together.

I wouldn't paint it...just gonna scratch and chip/flake and end up looking like crap. A freshly hot tanked block looks clean anyways. Besides, you don't wanna accidentally get some paint in the wrong places.
