Come on by we will get it done, let me know what size cooler you need , this is our second order of them already
I wonder how that 496 would look sitting in place of my 350merc in the boat I just bought....hmmmm
Hi Bruce, New Shop looks nice, I'll have to come by and BUY something.
Hey Bruce, Shop looks great!!! What size coolers do you have and how much? Shoot me a PM when you can or give me a ring.Thanks Jerry
Do you guys have a web site / store..?
Is that Chris's Scarab?

The yellow one we did the wrap on was Chris's and what a difference it made

CBM, what are my options for a better looking pulley on my LS1? I HATE the stocker and was told the pulley is not replaceable. Also, is there anything for the Harmonic balancer?

So do I have to buy the whole water pump then? I assume the HB pulley is a cover?
Bruce,
Cool stuff man. Smart to stock up on inventory. Inflation will come and it will be better to have inventory (at pre-inflation dollars) than just sitting on dollars.
I'm building inventory for my business too. Although my stuff isn't nearly as sexy looking.

ABC

Bruce,
Not sure if this is in or out of your scope of work or something you might be interested in. My 61 Mercury Meteor 800 has been in a shop for 2 1/2 yrs. for a engine swap
and it is still sitting going nowhere, I paid too much upfront, I know better). Original motor 390 had a cracked block. Need a Ford motor/trans built and installed doesnt have to be original just want a reliable cruiser. Something you and chris want to be involved in ?
Thanks, Jeff

Bruce, how much is a cooler in the 12x12'' range? You can PM if you like. Do you have them in stock? If so I can stop by today or tomorrow.

i also did not know you guys had other stuff in the shop... might have to get a cooler bag... saw some like that at the off road expo last year.
also, it says on predator motor corps website that you are retailers for their cars.... what do you have as far as parts for them? also i might need some wiring done. i hate wiring.

The original plan was a f.i. from a late model Lincoln but they couldnt make it fit cause the oil pan was in the way so the $ I paid they say went to them trying to install a motor that they recomended and wont fit.
When you get a chance toss me some numbers (p.m.) Gotta find a way to help you pay your insurance premiums.
