Just got my vette back on the road last week, missed the final cars and coffee, had a late night the night before.

Any other events before it starts getting cold?

Another Tony here, Have a pretty clean 75. Does anyone by any chance know of any reputable shops around Omaha that can do some engine work for me? Id love to do it myself but just had back surgery so bending over that hood wont work for me just yet.
Looking to have heads , cam, and intake done. Any help would be great!!!!!

I was in to Sublime last week and found out they have a new LS tuner/mechanic there from AZ. Have talked to a few other people and he seems to get good reviews so that could be an option even though you have an older car. I bought a cam and heads from Texas Speed that with the help of a friend we are going to install this winter so it's good that there is a local tuner in the area again. Was either thinking of going with a Texas Speed off the shelf map which I wasn't too keen on since even though it would work isn't for my exact car or else heading to Des Moines to Karl Performance.

Sublime has had some customer cars come up missing in the past.

I would reccomend Dynosport in Lincoln as another option.

Finally got my headers, cam, heads installed and tuned. Went with the TSP long tubes, TSP 233/239 .595"/.603" cam, and Precision Race Components stage 2.5 heads. Never drove a cammed car before so I have a little learning to do but am pretty happy with it.

Last Fling 'Til Spring car show in West Point, NE. September 21st which is a Sunday. It's a 3 day event though and has a few things to do on the other days. I usually just go to the show. Thought about driving my car up again this year but talked myself out of it for now, Drove it up in 2009 & 2010. I grew up in Oakland which is just 14 miles east.

Here's the link to the web site.
