Hey John, I just dropped of my roadster last week for a c5r installation. Probably the block you saw while you were there. The reason I went with AP Engineering was Chris's experience building the c5r motors.
They seem to be a straight forward bunch of gearheads :lol: Hopefully my experience with them will mirror yours.
