Default Finally did it 422 SuperStroker

After many months of saving and finally coaxing the wife into the theory that the 1998 PaceCar needs to live. I sent my baby down to MTI in Houston for the total 422 SuperStroker install. Jayson, the owner, and Chris were great in customer care and answered all of my questions and concerns. When the SVT Cobra came out I just couldn't bear not severing the heads off those little snakes. For all of you who saw my engine blow at the track here in Tulsa, get ready for spring as PACEMKR is about to come alive again.

As of Tuesday they were already taking the old engine out and confirming with me all of the intricate parts they were going to install. The engine was built several weeks ago. As before, these guys absolutely know their stuff.
