    Can anyone recommend a reasonable shop to install gears? I called Brad's Custom Auto and they quoted me something like 400 for just labor. Seemed kinda steep to me. thanks

    Pacific on the 26th?

    I hope not. I waited in line over 4 hours just to make one pass :notnice: . They kept letting the ricers and trucks go over and over again. It was a nice day though.

    87 5.0 - Exhaust in cab..help!

    Unless you have some rotted pipes the most likely place for leaks is going to be at your 4 socket/ball connections at either end of the h-pipe. Usually you can tell a leak by the telltale black soot around the leak. If you just put a catback on you may not be able to tell that easy if there is a...

    07 Shelby GT 500 pricing!!!!!!!!

    Yes it's sick but not much can be done about it. Supply and demand will dictate the prices, and most dealers fortunate enough to get a Shelby will probably get their asking price. Some dealers were even trying that BS when the 05 GTs came out. :notnice:

    Need Serious Advice ASAP!!

    What mods did you get raped on labor for? Everything on your installed list you can do yourself in your driveway or garage.

    Rims

    You need to give a little more info for help on this one. What did you "hit" and where at? wheel well? quad shock? Were tires mounted on the wheels when you "hit"? Was the car on a lift or jackstands when you "hit"? Is your car lowered or stock height? With that width of wheel...
