Why not ask him? He hasn't started a "For Sale" thread that I know of. I have his number if you want to call him directly.

I've heard horror stories about jms and one of them came from a friend of mine. To make a long story short they built his motor put it all together then gave him his car with belts loose and then lost all oil pressure in a few days. My friend took the motor apart and the oil pump bolts were hand tight. They didn't own up to **** and now he has a broke down 2g eclipse. So use them at ur own risk.

Btw sorry I just noticed kid posted his kit in here.

Great now the JMS groupies are going to get butt hurt and we are going to see them argue why they are the best around cause they made a 10 sec car.

PG's 128-131 for those that are wondering what Im talking about

I understand that everything is a risk especially when pertaining to getting an engine rebuilt. To be honest, there have been stories all throughout evoM about "this" EVO engine or "that" EVO engine having issues after being built by "x" shop or "y" shop. Thus far, JMS have stepped up to the plate for me when no one else would and that certainly says something in my opinion. I hope this doesn't turn into an Internet bashing and E-thug display of tough guy-ism. Time will tell...

Its a painting from Lee Teter, its a dedication to my daughter. Its a picture of a Devil Dog holding his daughter and both crying. My little girl would always cry and tell me not to leave her. A reminder to me as to why I do what I have to, to make her proud. Deployments have been hard for both of us and she is being a strong little girl for the both of us. I had a big print on the way out the door of my house as a reminder every day I left the house. She keeps that print on her bedroom wall over her bed and says "thats me and my daddy". Being a single Dad is a hard job...........

Here is a bigger pictures of it:

Get that BBK Full installed and tuned and maybe we can hit a few blocks when I come back to Texas to pick up the Mamba.



What in the world are you up to now? I though you were shooting for 600whp and the FS635 will do just that.
OPSEC SMOSHMEC...LOL Who doesnt know 1st CAV isnt coming home..... See ya when you get here!

I backed off some of the plans as I picked up a ZX14 to crave my need for speed...lol Ill probably end up just installing the BBK, FMIC, O2 housing, ex mani, wideband and injectors for now.

We did have some good times when we hung out.

Mario is a fun guy to be around, really funny when you get him talking about his horses. I happen to take a picture of him showing off his skills.

You got me.
