Advice on engine builders in FL
I'm looking to build an LT1 396 stroker and wanted to hear everyone's opinions on who some good builders are in FL. I was going to look at http://www.corvettemasters.com They are behind Rogers Corvette in Maitland, FL. Any other leads? Looking for mid 11s, reliable, and mild mannered enough to be a daily driver (not crazy loud, rough idle, etc.) Tough, but not impossible by far.
Thanks
Thanks

You could try Chris Petris. I dont have a phone number or anything. I know he is located in Lake Mary. He is usually in Corvette Fever and Vette Magazine.

I personally haven't had anything done by them but all the ZR-1 guys just can't seem to say enough good things about SGC and the owner, Aaron. In addition to the ZR-1 stuff, they also have LT1/LT4 and LS1/6 packages. I don't know how local you want to remain but SGC looks to be just north of Tallahassee. Here's a link:
