Glad you like the setup, Warren! DC Power alternators rock!

We just got a fresh pallet of the new billet 270XP's in. Man oh man, are they sweet looking. I've gotta snap some pics and get them posted.

I am pleased to report that we were able to save Yahiko (Sean) some cash on his Motorcraft transmission. It was ordered today and he'll have it tomorrow! Woot!

If you guys need anything whatsoever in Ford land, check out the ficmrepair.com OEM Parts section. The common stuff is listed there, but if need something not listed, drop us a line. I'd be blown away if we couldn't beat it.
