seemed like everyone wanted around $100 so I just went ahead and droped them off at apex sales

hey matt, nothin much, just tryin to get my camaro going again, started missfiring and turns out i got a bent intake valve, i think the cam is messed up too so i'm gonna go ahead and get a bigger one .480 lift, 292 adv. duration and 230 @ .050 also gonna put 3.08 gears in while i can't drive it, hopefully it'll be deep in the 13's with the 2 barrel :P i hope that cam isn't too much though

i didn't know they had a machine shop, i did call'em to help me pull the low/reverse piston out of my trans and the guy on the phone was an ass he had a northern accent so he was probably born that way

Yeah, that guy is the manager of the shop, the other guys are cool, 3 of the guys have REALLY mean GTO's.

3.08's!?!?! Man, put some 4.56's in that thing and start pulling stumps!!!!!! Still sticking with the 2bbl for the brackets huh, that's cool.

Are you going to be at Wake tech this fall? I switched majors, i saw one of my buddies lose his finger at John Deere, and another guy break his nose with a crowbar, so i decided to choose another job field. I want a family one day and i would like to be able to function.

hes the manager? daaayum so even if i did feel like bitchin about his attitude it wouldn't bother him too much eh? hahaha

4.56's my ass :P hahahaha I'm tryin to make the 1/8th mile in 2 gears, 3.08's will put me there right at 5k rpm in 2nd gear I really wanted 3.42's though

yeah i'm gonna try to go man, i got 3 classes left and i need ot register real early this time, they filled up too fast in the previous semisters Whats your new major? and when does registration start? it doesn't say nothign about registration on their webpage

did you see all that **** at school???? ouch
i heard some dude bout lost a finger in the machine shop over there, and I work in a machine shop (not an automotive machine shop) on saturdays and that made me nervous i couldn't do that kinda stuff full time

speaking of that guy breaking his nose with a crow bar, i was tightening somethin with a cordless drill wednesday, the ones with the huge battery packs on the bottom, i had my head right next to the drill, when it tightened the battery pack swung up and nailed me in the nose! heh that didn't tickle, i broke my nose in a car accident 3 years ago and it never healed right, so that hurt like a bitch
