you need a pretty decent tool kit to start with, I am an X snap-on dealer, so its snap-on all the way, about 20Ks worth last count.

What's your address again Chrissy? I reckon I could get at least $10k worth in the back of the ute......not real keen on running the gauntlet knowing what your hobby is though :tease:

Hi Eugene it might sound like an echo but did you have to get the car re-tuned... And you and Muzza must have been satisfied once you have completed the job...

Was extatic to get it finished!

We will take photo's next weekend when we do another set. We had enough to worry about to take pic's, the next one will be a walk in the park...NOT.

I scored well Tab his tools are still in my shed. :crybaby:

so you basically multiply it by 80 and you get the retail price. :laughing:

Good stuff :blink:

I think you may be taking this valve spring thing a bit to far though.....

Mercury, Edit tuned by Street tuner, Atomic Valve springs, Aps exhaust. PWR Cooler, XR8 CAI, Eugene injectors, T56 6 speed conversion. King springs,19" DTM Wheels,280rwkw edit, Atomic Valve springs.

Why would you want two sets? :idunno: That's just plain greedy!
