Default 353 Fastech

I'm looking at a 1999 353 Fastech w/HP500's that has been neglected a bit but still has some hope of being renewed to it's former glory. I'm pretty handy with generic wiring and component replacement, but some things I would rather have the factory address since they are specific from the factory. Has anyone used the "Formula Factory Care" program and if so was it worthwhile (cost vs. result) as compared to just finding a local resource to do the work? Also, any things I should be aware of that are weak points prone to repair on this model? Thanks!

That is if they accept the job. I had talked to them about doing my cabin interior, but they declined. As it turned out, they did the skins and I had my local "guy" fit them to the original seats. This was more cost effective anyway I believe. I'm not sure what type of work they are doing. It does sound like a pretty good deal though.

There service is still second to NONE!
