      hey Steve, just got you PM bud, sure I can help you out.

      haha I suppose you can say I have a little experience with Saturns [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gif[/img]

      I actually had an sc2 same year back before my Ion.

      I'm out of town for the weekend but when I return I'll contact you and we'll see what we can do.

              Oh, hell yeah, Football. I keep tellin' Vin I'll come out but never make it. It's a bit of a drive from Daytona Beach. Although, it looks like I'll be moving to Fort lauderdale now, so that puts me a little farther lol.

                  that's sweet. my first dohc actually died so i paid a shop to get me another one and do the swap. this one's in sweet condition so i may want to build this one up but not sure. maybe buying another one is a better idea. where u guys located?

Pressures and stresses of all kinds thermal and mechanical loading across the board escalate to extreme levels. A Chevrolet 5.7-liter LS1 V8 with this much specific power (horsepower per cubic inch) would be making 2,137 hp

                          We do meet up not as often as we use to but we still get together and have fun. We are actually meeting up next week to go see the slow and the furious tokyo drift
