Dunno if this will stick around in the race section or not, but just FYI to everyone out there we have a new location as of Monday March 28 & a new shop phone #. Just spent the last 3 days moving the shop & have almost everything settled in the new building..

new address is:

2440 Commercial Blvd
State College, PA 16801

& new shop # is 814-308-8058

Most of my current customers who I've talked to in last few months know about the move, but to those who don't, all the pertinent info is now on my website. & I have Marvin Herbold doing an all new site for me which we hope to have up maybe in few weeks, which will have all new content in a new format, so keep an eye out for that.

"Our old location on Shady Dell Rd, in Port Matilda was often times a hindrance in poor weather."


No kidding.

Yes, Ryan neglected to tell me there were two ways in. I came in the hard rough way pulling a 40 ft trailer packed the the gills at midnight. The only time my 05' Ram 3500 turned the tranny high temp light on. Yep, a brand new PTC converter with the bushings eat up and all the paint burned off. My trailer was designed, by me to stay on pavement. A road with deep ruts is risky as the plumbing can easily be ripped off with one wrong move. Didn't hurt the trailer but the truck took a beating trying to carefully creep up the mountain.

Where are the pics of the new shop?

I always have a vision in my head of what a place that I'm travleing to will look like, let's just say the old SDSS location didn't look anything like what I had envisioned. LOL

Ryan, good luck at the new location and keep up the good work!

The driveway to the old shop was hands down the scariest experience I can remember. I seriously thought about just dropping the motor off at the street !

On my trips up shady dell rd I couldn't help but look out the windows, knowing that any minute i will see some funny looking kid sittin on a porch playin a banjo. I was scared to crack the window because i knew the words(squeel like a piggie) would be echoing down the hollow. First time there I just had to ask if DELIVERENCE was filmed there.

Good luck at new shop well be up to see ya.

I had to put my RAM in 4x4 to get out of the driveway, and It was dry and sunny when I was there.

Congrats on the new digs Ryan

RYAN actually built the 417 w9 turbo motor so his snow blower can clear the mountains,with the snow it throws, when he's clearing his driveway.
