they just shipped out yesterday. i havent even checked the ship number yet to see when they should get here. 1 was sent fed-ex and 1 was sent usps which was odd to me. i hate usps so hopefully that one makes it here in 1 piece.

I just got off of the phone with Beau@SDCP. every time i talk to him it ends up costing me money

he hooked me up with LS2 head gaskets, ARP head bolts, ARP flex plate bolts, a Holley carb jet kit, power bond 25% underdrive pulley kit and some bolts for my vic-jr intake. transactions with SDCP are always great!

Beau is awesome, I doubt I'll ever buy from someone else. He came in on his day off and gave me a quote for all the stuff I need. Really a class act over there
