      No I do not know him.

      Thanks for the compliment. My car has fast burn 385, 700r4, 3.73 gears, IROC power sterring box, 800 watt stereo, lowered 2 inch in front and 1.5 in the back. I drive it about 20-50 miles a week.

      anybody else in south MS?

      I have a 68 vert with LS1 for sale if any MS guys are interested.

      Thanks

But it maybe going back in this week end if I get the 6 speed out of it and mate it back to the motor
      Yeah, I got'er done about three or so weeks before I had to leave for this desert. She made a best of 650 hp but there were signs of knock so we backed the timing off a couple degrees. I forgot what the final pull told us. The torque didn't change at all throughout any of the changes we made, 607 lb/ft all day.
      It looks good. All the powdercoating paid off. If you guys need powder done I know The Man.
      I get back in about a month thank God! The bullet is still on the engine stand where I left her 6 months ago. I will be spending some quality time with it to make Cruisin' in my jalopy.
      The car is green, primer brown, primer gray, 17" black wheels, and it will be hoodless with this diamond of an engine nestled in the bay. You WILL NOT be able to miss it.LOL

      Will do.
      What boat were you on? We were somewhere and took something to one of those things. It was a special delivery.
      Stories to tell when we meet up in person!

      I PM'ed my number to you and a timeframe I will be back in the States.

      The guy I deal with is Terry Snow. He sold the business to a lady friend of his but he still runs everything. I never got into why he sold. I think the lady is just more savvy financially. He is the type to give hook-ups and breaks for buddies. You can't be like that and make big profits.
      The do the prep work there. They use acid, sadblast, etc. They also use that special green powdercoat tape and plugs for thread holes. It is staight up professional stuff. He does alot of work for Trinity yachts. One of the big NASCAR owners had his CAT engine in his yacht done by him and gave him kudo's. The Coast Guard and some people out at Stennis Space Center (NASA) has used him. Richard Stephens sends his dragster bodies to him. Alot of chopper frames in there alot.
      The name of the place is or was Gulf Coast Powdercoating. I don't know if the lady has changed the name. It is at Hewes Avenue and Glover Street in Gulport. Try (228) 868-1788 . Tell Terry that John from the Seabees sent you.

      I'm back ya'll!
      After 20+ hours on the plane I finally landed in Gulfport, MS. I must have caught something on the plane breathing all the re-circulated air for all that time. I have felt like crap ever since I walked through the door.
      I have been passing the time by watching Nemo and Little Mermaid. I played shark and horse. It is a little bit of a change from last year. Then it was Lady and the Tramp. Now it seems like I will be watching alot of ocean related and Princess movies. I have yet to watch Shark Tales but I am sure it is coming today.
      Oh BTW, if you haven't figured out I have a daughter by now re-read the last paragraph, LOL.

      I will definately be there but it loks like I might need a miracle to get the 'cuda on the road by then.
      I am living in Bay St. Louis now, a little closer to my next duty station over at NASA, and will be mostly at the Long Beach and Bay St.Louis events. As always though, the Edgewater Mall is a good nightspot for burnouts and things.
