DFW engine work recomendations please
I can select a shop (via insurance) to take care of my hydro lock engine diagnois and associated repair work (whatever that ends up being).
So, please provide shops in the DFW area please. I live in NW Fort Worth, TX.
Thanks, Glenn

Glenn,
As a note - John at 21st Century normally has a number of "new" C6 engines around (people changing them out for the LPE 427's). Worth a try.

Glen, I would highly recommend LG Motorsports...
Great shop/service and have traveled the 1200 mile round trip on more than one occasion for their services...Talk to Lou and he will take care of you..

Good for you, go for it Glenn. I just read your email. Did they confirm bent or broken rods yet? I know when I did a similar thing this past August I just about got sick and I couldn't eat for two days until they told me the complete news and extent. I sure hope the best for you in this and that you won't have to pay out of pocket. I was furtunate the insurance actually was going to cover it.

I hope to know something mid-day Thursday.
I did mention asking about the cost difference on an LS6 to my wife, and she actually took it well. She teased me a bit, but I remained male.
