Well, I just got spoiled by going to the Autorama in Detroit this past weekend, so I'll likely take a pass on Performance World. Imagine twice the cars, and most of them are better too. ;)

I went last night I must say the show has changed for the better since the last time I was there.

So who eles was taking to the guys from the london area that will make a custom rad. I forget there name I guess because of the price 700 to 900$

I saw you there Jason but by the time I got across the hall to say hey I lost ya, I was there from noon till 7pm, the show was great, some truly amazing cars, the first hot rod in hall 1, the exaust on it I made up at work and polished, was kind of neat to see over 10 cars worth alot of value with things I made up at work on them. I might even get to put my car in the show next year too, will look better then that 95 4.6 bird with the black sparkle paint :rolleyes:. Some great deals too, I spent some money at the meguiars booth, always good deals there. Also spoke to D'dousa performance for awhile, to learn hes moving 2 shops down from my work and putting in a mustang dyno, he said he would work out better dyno rates for us if we were to come as a group, something less then 100 a hour

I forgot to take some pics thats they way it is evertime I guess.

I talked to both active engines and the balancing act both have worked on the 3.8 but I have a felling the Balancing act will to the best job on balancing the crank since he has done some befor and has the bob weights need for the job

But i'm still looking.

Jason, Active built a 3.8 for Greg, one of Scott E's friends in Oakville, I think the car was balanced and blue printed, with a home made intake, and 5% blower pulley and raised top with exaust it made 248rwhp, I think, but either way the motor was flawless, didnt skip a beat.

Glad to hear it was a worthwhile event. I didn't mean to sound like a downer with my original post, but believe me, you guys really should check out the Detroit show at least once.

Hi Ed,
It would be fun to get a group of guys to check out that show next year. I'm definitely interested.

They have it at Cobo Centre, same location as the new vehicle show that you usually go to.

It's very near the tunnel exit from Windsor, for those not familiar with Detroit.
