On the Peninsula. Between Yorktown and Richmond. I don't mind a drive if they're a good shop. I can't seem to find anyone using my google-fu. Not even any speed shops.

Go to your local parts store and ask where they ship out to or where the local builders send out to

Allright. So I'm taking y'alls advice and going with a 4# instead of the 6er. Found one for a good deal off CL from Miami. Also found an Innovative wideband in TN for a decent deal. Gonna have to hold off on any more purchases for the next month or so. Bills are due. LOL

Haha. Finally you're slowed down.
I'm looking to trade my 6 for a 4# too...

Really should have looked into shipping first. The cooler is .75" too long for a medium flat rate box. Price goes from $17 to $45 for the next size up..

Yeah, this is turning into a marathon. Lol.

Still need:
Timing set
Head studs
Fuel pressure gauge
Cooling fans for HE
SC belt
Tune
I think that's about it other than regearing. How are you coming along?
