    I bought some stuff from him and didnt have any problems but lots of other guys havent been so lucky. Cross your fingers when/if you call him that his wife doesnt answer the phone.
     

  4. order the base/linkage kits from Speedway-you'll have no hassles.

    I bought my 3x2 setup from him about 3 years ago, he did a GREAT job and he was nothing but nice to deal with. I've heard the same things too about his service, but I have recommended him to several people with no regrets. I think he puts out a great product.

  12. Jimmy,
    If you're serious about buying a quality setup from someone who knows how to do it, you need to call Larry Fulton @ Automotion, this guy is a Rochester genius, his stuff is #1 quality, his prices aren't bad, I got my Pontiac 3X2 setup rebuilt/hopped up by him, I couldn't friggin' believe the workmanship, or the difference it made in driveability. Just remember this, as a rule, good work isn't cheap, cheap work isn't good.
