Ha ha. Nice, same here it was good to meet you. Always nice to be able to put a face to the name. Not sure how close you are to the Philadelphia location, but I was there with a few guys from a local forum. You can check us out at www.phillystangs.com

There are plenty of dyno sheets floating around to prove that hot rods do add a decent amount HP

I too have Hot Rods, and I LOVE them! I chose them not only for the sound but also because of ease of installation(no spring change or phaser lockouts). I am currently running SLP Loud Mouth's but when I install LT's I am going to change it out(Cams+ LT's + SLP=way too loud!). As some of the other Hot Rod guys have already stated, the HR's definitely pick up some good horsepower up top. Detroit Rockers or HR's, you can't go wrong with either.

(Sorry for the crappy sound quality)

I have the h pipe and flows with detroit rocker and it sounds amazing. I paid brenspeed to do the install and it was 395 plus the 700 for the cams. Not to bad. I also had them put my H pipe and flows on while it was there.

Here is a video of it idling

Good plan, a home is more important than a hotrod.
