The guys at SVS are pretty cool. My buddy Jay's shop is at the end of the building there, so I'm always seeing these guys. Super chill and good to work with.
Jay did the mini-tub, exhaust, and installed the Fays 2 watts link in my car. He has some mad skills and is a hell of a fabricator.

Would like to see that Z on the track one of these days.

Just out of curiosity, does that Z-car get towed around by an early-50s rat-rod truck with a diesel engine? Is the Z black? If so, I may have seen this combo cruising through Folsom a weekend or two ago . . . very cool, applicable or not.

That would be the one. Love that truck. Shop looked packed with cars when I drove by. My guess is he's running out of room at the shop and was taking it home.

That's a dam good guess, but no. The Z isn't running at the moment and Jay's truck has a stroked small block.

Jay's shop is PACKED with cars, but despite this, he always somehow makes room for my dad and I. He even let us use his shop for the interview portion of the Optima Search For The Ultimate Street Car. I can't say enough great things about him.

I really want him to get the Z going again. That thing is NUTS!!! 383 stroker and a TON of tube chassis work. Full wide body and 315 rear tire.
