I am very excited, I want to learn more!

It's a privilege to do this job and I want it to be a success.....

I will give a background about the job, sometime in 2014 engine started making some funny noises and it was taken to "specialist", who did a couple of things.....



Background not enough

How long did you use the OEM engine before you visited a specialist?

What are your future plans for the ride?

I’m a student of the school of “You Can’t Have Too Much Power”.

This is why I always respect our local guys that manage to put Camry engine in Freelander and such.

They are my cohorts and we have a vast international membership.
