Default LPE a Week from Today!

Next Thursday I'll be making the 255 mile trip to Decatur, IN and will be dropping off my 99 FRC at LPE for the 500HP headers/cam package.

Flying back to O'Hare from Ft. Wayne on an American Eagle a week from today.

My car will be shipped back in LPE's own 30 ft. enclosed trailer with another Chicago area bound Vette in 2 to 3 weeks.

I'm getting so excited I'm ready to pee my pants

Happy Birthday to me!

You will LOVE this package

Have it on the '04 CE (S/O's ride), and it is awesome.
