Hey guys (and gals!),

Can't remember how many years ago I signed up, but never really posted. Anyhow, I moved up to Michigan, got married had a couple kids and then we decided to move back down here, lol.

My car is an 88 Merkur Xr4ti. I've got a good bit done to it, still trying to dial in my tune and planning on getting the head porting finished up. It's nothing much to look at, but fun to drive and I get a lot of weird looks, lmao!

*fixed* Wasn't sure about images on this site. Most of the sites I'm on they want links only.

On a side note, anyone know of a good Ford place to get head work done? I know there's a lot of mini-stock guys that run over at the track in Acworth, figured there's gotta be a well known 2.3 Ford place in the area.

That'd be awesome, I really appreciate it! The head I have now already has chamber and short side-radius work done and a valve job, looking to get the bowls worked and the ports blended in. Shouldn't be too much. I would do it myself, but I've already passed into the water jacket on two heads so I'm leaving it up to the pro's now.
