YOU DID NOT. :shock:
Yes!!!...
Had a feeling those were coming soon :thumbup:
Gonna be a wait on them, but it's happening. A hood friendly version is being cooked up. Several conversations regarding huge intake manifolds, custom manifolds, and plenum work either got no response or they require PRB heads or tapping my RBB head (these discussions were with other companies). I still want to extract as much as possible with a completely oem longblock.

I did get the newly released delrin shift knobs shipped out to me today.

Thanks bro
Sick progress bro truly amazing work and dedication
I appreciate that!



With all the new companies popping up and bad business' running around, it's nice to deal with a few that are 100% legit. I know i've been a frequent customer of Downstar/Bolt boys, but Frank Garcia went above and beyond with the smallest of details for me which is a lot more than most would ever do.

He ran across a pic of mine on instagram and eagle eyed a single missing bolt on my engine. He then contacted me about the missing bolt and said he would throw it in with my next order. (I had already mentioned I'd be picking up some other stuff in the future) Time passed, and without me mentioning anything to him, he sent me the missing piece along with the matching beauty washer. Just a small piece, sure, but taking the time to notice it and actually give a s**t to send it to me at no charge without a reminder makes all the difference. Going above and beyond when he had no reason to in the first place. To top it off...he sent me the extra bolt like this...





Individually sealed from the rest of my order and in it's own plush pouch at priority shipped my package. Pretty cool story, eh bro? ;) lol

I can speak from the business side, having good customers who are courteous and generally cool about stuff makes the business want to keep a good relationship.
 

crash!

:( Don't neglect that thing. All it needs is some high quality care.

spent some time routing my engine harness the way I actually want it in the bay. Happy with the way it all turned out. I went in wanting a stealthy harness and that's what i got.





the K-tuned releases should be showing up tomorrow. If I get them early enough, i'll throw up some pics
