Thinking about the future of my car, and while I would love to be able to ship my car down to Marty's in GA every time I needed something done...its just not logical.

So my question is, does anyone know a shop in MN that has marauder-specific experience, that I could leave my car with and be 100% at ease?

Nothing is needed now, but if I do the eaton swap, dyne-tune, etc. I want somebody comparable to Marty to do it.

Had a local mechanic shop put in my ac condenser a while back and they did an ok job but I couldn't trust them to do something major.

Oh and Marty if you read this, you said you lived here once right? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys!

Lidio's in Detroit...that's a little closer than GA.

I sure do have advice!


Move out of that godforsaken State!!!! I left when I was four months old. And even at that age I knew it was way to gold for human habitation!!!!

My regular UPS driver is a 9 second quarter miler in a 67 Camaro, and he recommends this place. Never been there, no time or money to explore this option right now. I'm more concerned with my paint.

Maybe it'd be worth your time to drive down and chat with them. Just remember that MMs are not Mustangs, and they need an open mind when tuning a boat like this.

Also consider Blue Oval Chips, in Illinois, I think. Long drive, but I think he has a dyno and has a good reputation.

I will have to keep Detroit in mind!

Funny guy Marty!!! haha I love the winters here, we actually go out a few nights in a state park in winter for survival camping, and one year it got down to -20 F over night :s Plenty of lakes blah blah maybe I should move... :P

Thanks for the advice clmrt, hey ya been to any recent concerts up here like the Shinedown one? Haven't seen the rauder around for a while!
