Default Fastbird Performance would like to welcome

Anthony01 into the mix. Anthony is a very skilled C5/C6 mechanic in the St. Louis area who does everything from simple maintenance to performance work to visual enhancements! Here's a short list of what he has done already:

Full exhaust, C5/C6
Painted calipers,C5/C6
Full cam installed, C5
Air Intake systems, C5/C6
Brake up grades, C5/C6
Differential swaps, C5
Torque Converter swaps, C5
transmission rebuilds, C5
Suspension upgrades, C5
Coil relocation, C5
fuel pump & BAP, C5
Window regulators, C5
Misc. repairs on C5; H2O pump, AC, Check engine Light.
Custom interior, C5
Seat covers, C5/C6
HUD in non-HUD C5s
Full-functional Z06 rear brake ducts on C5s

In addition to this work, he also has the ability to custom spec out camshafts and will be offering a tremendous deal for a camshaft swap setup that he'll be chiming in with more information on shortly.

He's also going to be an installer locally for my line lock kits when I don't have the time to do it myself, and I hope to reciprocate the favor and help him turn a wrench one of these days myself.

Anthony, welcome aboard, looking forward to a prosperous partnership for the community!

Hi guys/gals,

Some of you know me around here and some have had work done by me. Well now being partnered w/ Fastbird, I hope I can pass on quaility work and decent prices to more of you.

As seen in my list above, I've done a few things. So PM anything you need done. I'm currently at home doing this, so my turn around time is fast.

As of now, I have a cam package set up including the following:
Custom spec Compcam, made to your mods and driving habits
Compcam 918 springs
Hardened Pushrods
LS2 timing chain
All gaskets/bolt

Parts, Installed, Engine/heater core/cooling system flushed out,
AC condensor and radiator fins cleaned out and Dyno tuned.

All for $1850

Differential swaps,torque convertor, and tranny installs :
$275
those I can have done while your at work

Complete LT headers kit installed:
$250

I will post up more specials and pricing as I get things together. I take of your car as it is mine and make sure it leaves cleaner then I recieved it

hope to be doing business wih you all soon

Anthony

In all my wisdom i took off my BSM's and low and behold the passenger door had been painted before i owned the car and they painted over the BSM's ......SOOOOOOO now i have a stripe down the door and cant put the moldings back on becasues i f'd them up. Thankfully a neighbor is a body guy that works at a GM dealer and will repaint it for $350.00.
I do like the car without the BSM's.
