Today was a great day.

Well i didn't want to say anything and i know you guys hate hearing about my job but i have to tell someone. Anyways, we had a 68ss 396 camaro come in today, and we dynoed it and it needs some work but more importantly i got to drive it!!! it felt good getting back in a first gen. Also we have a 05 gto in the shop getting headers and exhaust done to it, i get to dyno that too. and in the next 2 weeks or so we are having two c6's coming from idaho to get both headers and exhaust done, and well yes you guessed it i get to drive those too. basically i love my job. also we have an 06 f150 in our shop that i did a vortec supercharger on, and since this is the first one in the country to be done, there is no software out there to tune it so we are having problems getting it to run correctly, we're using SCT tuning softare for it but for some reason the truck likes to pull timing and fuel at a certian point in the RPM's. we also had a 50th anniversary zo6 come in today and it looks like it will be back for some work. i took pictures of the camaro, the gto and the z06, but they are on the shops computer so ill try to get them as soon as possible.

ok first off all i have to say is if you guys havent drivein a new gto go do it. its ******* awesome. the clutches in them are absolute magic. otdya i busted *** and did headers and exhaust on the goat, it ended up makin 372hp up from 320hp. and they way i got this job was, this is the place i used to take the camaro too get worked on, and i kept bugging them about a job and they kept blowing me off, and a few months later i asked again and they were hiring but they dind't hire me, a few months later i asked again and they told me to come in that day to start. seriously i love my job.
