    Im on the Navy base b/c the military decided to jointly instruct the Navy Seebees, Army Corps of Engineers and Air Force Red Horse/PRIME BEEF all @ one location, and they settled on the SEEBEE base that I am currently at now. I cant complain its actually not that bad here, except for trying to spot the NAVY officers when im marching around....but besides that its not too bad....what was your AFSC in the Air Force if i might ask.

    I had Ryan @ AREA1320 in Easton PA do the swap for me back in this time last year...im very pleased with it, im just running pretty much stock everything right now, the only mod i have done to the motor wise is a catback SRS exhaust, but im hoping to do a 16G upgrade here soon, along with a Grimmspeed uppipe and Tial 38mm EWG and non catted downpipe, with an electric cutout to really get that boxer rumble sound when i want it....

    Don't remember the ASFC code (its been a long time).. but I was an F-16 Crew Chief. I was stationed in Aviano AB in Italy for 4 years, which I highly recommend if you can get over there.... And whats this you say about marching? I didn't march at all after boot camp... :)

    Where from PA are you from. I moved here from Harrisburg about 4 years ago. I knew a couple of people in Easton as well though.
