      Just received my parts from SC & C!

      Got two big boxes in the mail today, one containing my new Stage 1 ProLite upper control arms and Howe modular "tall" ball joints, the other a new Howe radiator. I must say that I am extremely impressed. Everything looks even better in real life than advertised! The UCA's are serious pieces of hardware. They look really well-built. The Howe radiator looks like a show car piece, the quality of the welds are outstanding! It's clear to see that this radiator is built for some major flow, too. I am glad I came across these before I ordered one of the other aluminum radiators, which would doubtless cost more and probably be less efficient. I doubt I will have any problems keeping my engine cool with this bad boy installed. I'm just waiting for my Hydroboost system that also I ordered from them, hopefully it will get here soon (but my order wasn't too long ago). Now if I can just get my car up and running again so I can try all this stuff out...

      I would also like to take this opportunity to praise the excellent customer service I received from Marcus. Normally when I order car parts from someplace, I get the impression they just want to make the sale and get me off the phone--you know the feeling. I called with all kinds of tech questions for Marcus and he answered all of them in detail, and then some,and even threw in a few racing stories. He seems like a great guy and is obviously dedicated to his work. I would highly recommend giving Mark a call if you are looking for these type of parts. The parts I received were packaged with care and arrived quickly, and included detailed installation instructions. I can't say enough about the quality of service and product of this company.

      In case you're not familiar, SC & C is a sponsor on this site, and their website, www.scandc.com is displayed to the right of this page. And they did not pay me for this write-up...

      Thanks for the kind words,when we have such great customers it`s easy to give great service.

      BTW your Hydraboost shipped the same day as the other parts. I checked tracking and it hasn`t make it to the FPO yet. I called the post orifice and they say it`s not unusual for one package to take longer and to give it a few more days. Reminds me why we use UPS for 99% of our shipping... I`ll keep checking it and file papers on it in I need to. We`ll get it to you one way or another! Mark SC&C

      No doubt Mark is about the most helpful person I have ever bought from. I will definately call him back when I need something more and also give him plugs to others! Keep up the good work dude!

      Marcus,
      Don't worry about it, I just received the hydroboost today! I honestly was not trying to flame you b/c I hadn't received the part yet, I knew it was on its way. I am used to delays shipping to my FPO address.

      Once again, I am very impressed with this unit. You guys deal in some real quality parts.

      To everyone else: Y'all crack me up, you probably all know what these parts look like already, or you could just go to SC & C site...but I guess I could snap a few shots for ya because we can't have too many pics of shiny new stuff! Just give me a chance to get the pics downloaded onto a computer because my computer broke...
