I'm down around you in Nashville. If you want, I can get you in touch w/ a guy in STL that does cam installs for a damn good price.

Where did you get your machine work done? The selection of performance shops in the metro east area is slim to none.

The guy that owns it is named Dean Hoffman. He is supposed to be some hotshot head-builder and machinist....I don't know from personal experience, though...just word of mouth...

Cool High performance work in southern Illinois

I have just opened a shop in Herrin, IL. This is something I do every day. No taking 2 or 3 months here. I do everything from replacing a spark plug to building complete race cars. Check out my web page www.purplehayesracing.com I know I race fords but I will work on all makes. My rates are very reasonable and based on the job not the hours it takes. e-mail me at purpexp@shawneelink.net or call 618-942-7740

Got an address for them? I'll swing by and check them out next time I'm in Belleville.

I've been working w/ a company in Belleville by the name of Bi-State Customs lately. The co-owners of the shop are big Ford guys, but they also do awesome tubing work and turbo systems. They're finishing up a friends twin-turbo IROC this week.

LZR is on Rte. 13, right up the hill about a mile or so from PT's.....as you are going toward PT's from Belleville, it is on the right side when you are going down the hill.....I KNOW you know where PT's in Centreville is, right?
