OH YEAH, please do!!!! Can't wait to see it!!!!! Thanks Marks Wife!!!

If its too large to go through Yahoo, then email it to sales@azzatochips.com

Better yet, just email it to both.

Simply awesome, on the way home I was pissed that we did not bring the camera, and I did not even know you had yours there! Not surprising I forgot the camera, when I forgot/lost everything else I needed also.

Good job

Give TPIS a call, with classic plates the emissions is not necessary.

That is one fast 383 !

I wonder if a 10.9x would be possible with a few more mods...(electric water pump, A/C delete, some mine shaft air).
