      I used to live over in Bay St. Louism MS Yjust over the State line from Slidell. There is quite a few Mopar guys down there. Try looking up the NOLA Mopar club on Google.

      NOLA is one of my favorite cites in the world. I love this quote:

      In America there is New York, San Francisco and New Orleans. Everything else is Cleveland.

      These are the guys I was talking about. They would come up to Cruisin' the Coast every year and stay in my town ( Bay St. Louis is the most western town on the Hwy 90 cruise. There are some really nice Mopars in NOLA.

      This guy sold me some Powerstroke tuning stuff but specializes in Modern Hemi and Mopar stuff in general. He's in Kenner. He's grown a lot!

      These guys built my engine. I spec'ed it, bought the parts, they assembled and dyno'ed. They mostly do big block 7 second engines and they really liked my small block. If they didn't like building small blocks after that then they never will. They're in Gray (just past Houma) so it's a little drive and they aren't cheap but the price reflects the quality.
