I research just about everything I do before I do it. So I was sure
about the size engine I want. I do about 85-90 mph and no faster
right now. Sean check out RIMCO for your super case they have for
$300 and something. They are the new ones and all you have to do is
machine it. Probably where I will get mine when I build the 2007. I
have been getting a ton of complements on my buggy. So I guess it
looks okay and runs great!
