Good Vendor to deal with. I've gotten a fair share of parts from him/them for my FRC and wouldn't hesitate using them for something like this. I bet that 383 would be alot of fun with some long tubes and a modest cam. Mmmmm....someday.

Wow, this sounds like an awesome deal. Later on, Ill be looking to move up into a forged setup to accommodate a little F/I so this looks pretty cool. I'll keep you guys in mind for the future!!

Default Chicago area?

Just sent you a pm, I am very interested in what you have to offer. I have a 2004 Z06 with an A&A V3, Si Trim that puts down 600rwhp on my stock bottom end. Would like to step up to a forged bottom end and the extra cubes is a definite plus.
Speed, Inc at Schamburg, Il installed and tuned the A&A system. I live 100 miles west of Chicago and was wondering if you had any participating vendors in the area.


Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you

Jim

Maybe, I have a couple customers over there but they may have travelled to have their work done. I'll find out who they used to do the engine install and tune

^ Good to know - I may be going this route in the future! I'll admit for the cost, it's pretty tempting.

Thank you, we offer a real good program for the heads as well. The car would be a night and day difference with our 383 and worked heads in it for sure.

Thinking of a forged engine in the near future, runninng a tvs 2300 on an ls6, 11lbs boost. I want to be proactive and get a motor built before something happens. What c.i. [ls2 or 3, stroked or not] do you recomend? I`d like the option for more pwr in the future, like up to 750hp max. stock cubes? Also, cyl.head options. thanks ,Larry

Its all about the budget to be honest. Better heads make better/more efficient power
The Ls2 and LS3 are so close together money wise for the block that I would opt for the bigger LS3 416 combo. Heads we like to use aftermarket but we also offer a ported LS3 head that would do the trick for less money.

What is your closest affiliate to Lawton, OK? I have an '99 vette with an LS1 and am interested in your program. Would like to have someone do the R&R and is there someone whom I can call to discuss options? Thanks!

You can give us a call a anytime, leave a message if I dont answer and I'll call you back. We dont have anyone in that area but I can help you locate a person locally though and interview them for you. We could do the R+R but the shipping would be a bit much.
