LT Headers, Intake, TB, Heads etc...also, where in the New Haven, Ct area, can I find a engine builder, tuner etc..Or, should I order from a online/ Forum Vender, In the Hemi forums, there is a short list of reputable engine builders, I've had 4 built, 2 great experiences! 2 terrible, the bad was before I started asking on the forums! I have a installer, also, the car will be for weekend driving, will I need a trans, Tq Cnvrtr, and or, axles? I already have a car for the track, I am at the tail end , of a TT 392" Hemi Stroker , Trans Brake, Race Trans, 8.8 Rear End etc... aproximately 1000+ rwhp, the car hits the rollers this Weds night!!!Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!Thanks, from Ct...having this work done in Boynton Beach Florida, is a possibility?just need some info, car is in Florida now, just bought the car last Friday, drove it to my house, parked in my garage, and, flew home! so, really didn't drive it that much! one mor thing, do I need to be a supporter, to be able to post pics???

Heads and cam can get you to the levels your looking for, dont need to be a supporting member to post pics of your car.
