Default Need help finding engine installer

My engine signed off Sunday and my first tuner choice (in NJ) obviously is too busy to give me options and prices. I need a really good and reliable tuner that can build and install a forged engine and put my blower back on, preferably within 500-600 miles of WV. I need all the assistance I can get. Thanks.

Signed,
Stressed 2D Max

As much as I like Lingenfelter, I think they may be priced where I can't reach. The only reason I didn't have the Vette Docs install my blower originally was I can't get the memories of towing my 22' trailer through the streets of NYC a few years ago and liked to break me up going through the toll booths, even though it may not be close to Amityville. I will call them. Thanks.

Looks like MTI is going to be my choice and hopefully it's a good one. Let me know good or bad. Thanks.
