This classic Oldsmobile Cutlass has been a drag car for years. Its impressively built with an alcohol burning nitrous injected big block thats good for about 650 horsepower. Its got all of the goodies including CO2 assisted shifting, Pro Cube controller and full MSD ignition. The owner of the car inherited it from his grandfather in its current form, and wants to turn it into a 1000 horsepower street car. To accomplish that goal he is making some mods to the engine to support nitrous injection as well as a supercharger. We yanked the motor and had it apart in no time. One of the local race engine builders stopped by and gave us an idea of what would be needed to make the desired amount of power. Next step is to order up some new pistons and send the two speed race tranny out for an overdrive upgrade. Ill keep putting up photos of this beautiful classic cars’ conversion.

This 2001 BMW 325i came into the shop this weekend needing a new valve cover gasket as well as some new plugs and ignition coils. The owner had been quoted over $900 for the job at the dealership. We got him set up with some tools and a workspace and were able to save him over $700 on the repair!
