Should not take any reputable shops over 1-2 weeks even if they don’t do them often. I turboed my truck in 2 days with a “bolt on” kit.

I looked at it this way having receipts from a well known shop will help resale value if I ever sell it. They’re also very good at tuning stock bottom end cars they have hundreds of stock LS2/LS3 cars living at 700+ or 800+ RWHP that actually get beat on. Hopefully after this I leave it alone and can focus on building a more drag oriented automagic car. ---

> [@focusinprogress](#): > > @**[maxwell](http://www.nyspeed.com/member.php?u=43942)** I need an update on the cb450! I replaced the worn roller guide (part of the trans carepack you sent) and buttoned the bike back up. Unfortunately I need to crack the bottom half off… as the roller didnt do the trick. The damn thing runs and idles like a top, but im still getting the false second, and 4th now too… its getting worse. I’ll have to tear it back down here soon. Maybe this weekend I can get started. Question… while we are on that topic… I see no gaskets for the bottom end… should I just get the black circular seals, or should I be OK? ---

> [@LZ](#): > > Interior pieces? post up how that turns out I was debating trying that on some stuff Yessir, I’ve used it before but not on car parts. I ordered a 60"x24" roll so I’ll have PLENTY of it. I’m doing the radio surround/shifter bezel/gauge hood. I should have enough left over to some random bits here and there. I think I paid $35 shipped from Amazon. ---
