You should stay out of the conversation if you aren't involved or know the particulars of what is going on. Charlie (the mechanic he is referring to) has built several of our cars in the last 2-3 years here in Arizona and I don't know of a more honest person. I trust him implicitly with my car and I know Sandy does as well. I happen to have the same engine Sandy does and can personally attest to when our cars were new and the engines (the first 5 to come out of Roush for this motor) were getting sorted out, it only took a few tweaks on the computer in the right hands with the FI system to greatly increase the horsepower we were getting at the time. These are not your normal garden variety small or big block with a carb.
On top of it the shop he is at currently (Hot Rods by Dean) has does excellent work on my CSX as well as the superformance I owned in the past and the rates were much more reasonable than other shops I have talked to.
I am sorry to rant but it irks me for people to stick their nose in where is doesn't belong or where they don't know the rest of the story.
Sandy, i am sure you will put the horsepower to good use!!
