I cannot thank you guys enough for your hard work since February 23rd, when I handed over the keys to my car for it's new found power conversion.

While it was difficult for me at times being without my Marauder for 5 - 6 weeks, it was so worth the wait!

She runs great, pulls strong and looks amazing under the hood!

You guys have outdone yourselves by going above and beyond while paying attention to the smallest of detail during the swap.

Knowing the hardships encountered during the swap, you guys stuck with it and my Marauder finally conceeded when strapped down at Mr. Norms.

My hat is off to you guys, and you deserve this shout out for your hard work.

:bows::bows::bows:

I also wish to thank Melanie, Heather, Bill, Chris, Jake, Chris, Brad, Zack, Casey, Ed, Rex and of course Bugsy for making my dream a reality!

You guys and gals are the bestest!!

:banana2:

I forgot to add. We where on the verge of making the first dual intake for a Marauder too. But we scrapped that plan.

Turned out great Mike. What happened to the chrome COT? Did it leak? The Cam Covers are very shiney!

RacerX
04-08-2013, 10:04 AM
Yes, it leaked. My bad. I made that over a year ago when I was learning MIG. It pays to have Argon and have a good, slow wire feed on thin metal. :( I hope I made up for it in other areas though.

You are welcome Mike I'm very glad you like it. I did stay at bobs for 2 nights working on either your car or bobs. I had a good time working at JUST BOBS MOTORSPORTS. I feel privileged just to say I helped work on your and bobs awesome cars. Bob was so happy when I said I would help. This is what he sent me.

Woo hoo JBMS is up to two employees!! I'll even give you 90 PERCENT of my earnings!! (No medical or sick time, must be able to withstand sexual harassment, you will be 1099'd, must buy boss lunch, be able to fabricate, weld, polish turds < DTR's, and give messages)
