it WOULD be both

I would love to have carl's setup of compounds + whipple charger, but I don't think I could stand listening to the constant noise of a whipple... it's not that sweet turbo noise...it's an obnoxious howl like a PS pump running dry...

Replaced the A/C Compressor, Receiver/Dryer, A/C hoses, evaporator, heater core, radiator hoses (including the ever-so-fun "bypass" hose).

And, to top off the fun.... forgot to chock the tires so that when I pulled the dash away and went to raise it up and tie it off to the grab handle, the emergency brake let loose, the trunk rolled down our driveway and into a tree in our cul-d-sac. Wonderful..... now I get to add a new rear bumper and tailgate to my "to do" list.

I would rather had used my GMC but I had to leave it at work and drive a loaner home cause the front end was still torn apart at 8 pm when the owner kicked me out the shop, something about insurance and being there by myself. I have stayed to midnight by myself plenty of times before, I guess it went unnoticed lol.
