    But I love the kids that have money to do 1/2 lifts, cams, and tuning. Here is a powder coated 5k lift install and a 4500.00 engine build. 17 year old kid.

    So I do as my customer request. If they want a budget swap, I’ll put the donor engine in. Anything with my name on it that I’m going to sell is completely zero miled. In other words, block honed or bored, all new internals, mild cam, head/valve job, and custom tuning which drives the price up.

    The 4L60e was bench built, new sun shell, all updated servo’s, shift kit, torque converter, etc.

    Everything done in house except boring the block.

    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Both. I really wanted a straight drive and an automatic to take to Jeep invasion in Pigeon Forge back in August. Again my year stopped that. Myrtle has a Jeep jam this weekend. Not sure yet if I’m going. I wanted to trailer them somewhere to get the publicity of the install for future work and ultimately sell both.

    Would a LS fit in a 2010jk and could that manual 6speed take it? I need to get my tranny rebuilt anyway. I'm sure I'd have to beef up the axles drive shifts etc.
