Might check out dealer locator on our website to help locate a dealer.

ALSO...MCS Midwest Diesel Performance up in our neck of the woods is the only MO dealer for Smartys IIRC. He has a few on shelf last time i was there at least.

MFA sells B-5 only. I used to get it there....but they have a funky system for credit cards.....didn’t really like it.

Talked to the shop that sells the Bio...and he said that he was about tapped out as far as people buying his stuff and why I didn’t mention his info on here......but ill PM you his info as he is a performance shop. If he wants to turn down business, he can do it himself! haha...

I know a few die hards that have quietly called me in the last year or so to inquire about the cummins and what I think. Then Republic Ford practically gave him a brand new 08 ford. He gets 8 miles to the gallon and crys about it all the time.

Hoffdog, that shop is mainly ford but he recently quit working on anything. He is just a online dealer for performance parts. I was going to take ol red up there for some work but he said he didn't work anymore. Typical, we find something in our back yard then it closes....
