Oldman and Hotrod - You've done a good job of solidifying the opinion I had last night. I'll stick with the local builder. He used to build motors for Indy cars as well, so he probably knows something about quality and horsepower...

I spent the last three years building a wide-tire rigid chopper, and the group over at www.clubchopper.com was a great help. We all stuck together and helped each other with the ongoing projects, and my sled wouldn't have been as good without them. I have to say that with my newfound Camaro hobby, it looks like the group on www.clubhotrod.com will be no different.

Thanks everyone!

Hobo
