Hello All,
JD here and I reside in Nevada. Just your average grease monkey been turning wrenches for nearly 40 yrs! Currently it's "The Beast" occupying much of my time ... 2016 Z06/Z07 at 900+HP there's extensive work done (more to follow for sure) nothing like taking perfectly good parts off an already wickedly fast car and aiming for......ridiculous fast?
This will have to do for the moment
