Hi All, I just bought my 1998 SVTC on thursday, checked all the fluids and drove to Jackson, MS and back in 2 days. Very impressed with the car. I will have pics up soon (it's really really dirty). Had another question, anyone know of a trustworthy mechanic in the Atlanta area that might be able to help me with engine work, etc? I don't feel like taking this SVT to any random mechanic. Meanwhile, i'm going to scrub it clean, and change the oil tomorrow. I'll post pics soon.

Welcome  . Coolant half inch above max line (pesky coolant light quirk) and engine oil half quart above max line (preventive measure against oil starvation during long sweeping turns with engine RPMs above 3000 or so).
