Yeah, it just bothers me that Scott is likely still working with him and I just worry about unaware people getting ripped off.

Doesn't appear to be, Yukon's are D585, Brice specially states, "These same coils are used on the Z06 Corvettes so you can imagine the amount of power these coils can deliver!"

I'm waiting to see the terminal ends, as far as I know BHR is the only company that is running proper terminal ends in their kits. I found this out the hard way, luckily Ray was willing to bail me out.

Had car towed to mazda today just to be sure i am correct.

Compression tested there with there 3 reader thing.

got passing numbers on both rotors

they hooked a computer up, when in manual mode the car was showing reverse and 1st at the same time that's why it locks up.

That and the shop that rebuilt it used wrong fluid and it already burned trans up.
so all that cost me was 325.00 today.

but good news is motor is fine and i no that for a fact now since i had
the proper compression test done.

Now it's time to see if http://www.aplussanantonio.com/ honors there warranty

car is no longer for sale it's here to stay

And i just got promoted to derick hand! woooo
