hmmm....when I first got on looking for performance stuff, my first move was to get Pin 42 turned on for the electric fans (that I got from Dale), by Allen. This is when he was still a mile north of Mexico (haha). Got a mile down the road and turned around and went back and got a tune.

After that, Billy at TRT played a huge roll in helping me with stuff....cam swaps, springs, pushrods, torque convert(s)(s)(s), etc.

During that time I also ran into Virgil at the track...didn't meet him but 'met' his truck. Played leap frog with him all the way back from Ennis. Saw him later on at a Wells Fargo and finally met him and had a look at the old black truck (wish he still had it - I loved that truck). After that, we spent a lot of time helping each other on projects - our own and other folks from the forum.

Around that same time, Tyler was also a huge help on any projects. Dude has more energy than anyone I know. It would be midnight and he would still be ready to keep on working.

Greg was also a huge part in helping me learn the game and was always more than willing to help on projects and trouble-shooting.

Once I went turbo, enter Louis Gigliotti. He's an amazing tuner and it was a pleasure and privilege to have him work on my stuff.

There are others, but my break is over, so if you aren't in the list, don't get your feelings hurt.

Out of all of those that helped me mentioned above, I'm glad to call all of them friends. They're always ready to help out and I'm always happy to do the same for them.
