My deepest sympathies to the family of Kevin Swenson. Ive know "Sqiushey" for decades and we had so many great times and laughs way back in the day. He could fix anything having to do with engines. He was a true high performance guy . If he couldn't fix it nobody could. A friend gone way to soon. Sincerely , Jim Snow.
