Alan,
Congrats on your reborn beast! I'm glad everything turned out as planned, after all you are in the best hands. John and Paul are the best people I've dealt with in this business. They're attention to detail, customer service, and experience is outstanding.
Let me know if you're going out this Sunday, maybe we can meet up.

Raudel

I had the same thing happen w/ Protomotive which was pretty cool..

One thing that's different about Protomotive is that they do not sell parts... like headers, exhaust,etc. They concentrate on building fast cars... one at a time...

Thumbs up Unlimited Abilities, Limited time:

Geetee,

Interestingly enough, Todd and Cynthia were planning on "semi-retirement"
when they moved from crazy Southern California to Ozark Mountains.
He has more ECU, custom engine parts fab, tuning, building etc. than they
can handle right now, but I feel some things are worth the wait. I dont know
for sure but T & C are mostly used for special engine/drivetrain fabrication,
building, and tuning. He is not the guy to slap on your new 6 piston brakes,
leave that for your local parts replacer. It all depends on what exactly you are talking about. I guess you would have to email them to find out specifics. Good luck with your choices, we are lucky to have a great group
of knowledgable people in this industry all over our great nation!

Thanks. I hope they are around for years and years to come.
I was just wondering if they were like other tuners where they can basically do everything. You know, while the engine's being built, body work, paint, brakes, suspension, etc. so you can get the whole package done at once instead of going here and there.
