    What 408 do you guy's like?

    Ok guy's I am going to be in the market for a 408 shortblock soon, I have been really looking at the TSP 408, does anyone here have experience with one, or do you have another short block that you would suggest. Thank's!

    I have heard stories of TSP putting wrong sized pistons in a long block and blaming the tuner for blowing up the motor.

    Lots of people like Rex @ WCCH for building motors.

    Rex built mine and iv beat the hell out of it with up to 400 shots and now boost. He called every Friday for 2 months checking on it. There also a 370,6.0, and ls2 of my buddies that he built and did the same with them. Excellent service and very up front about everything. Very clean work and ships engines in awsome fashion.

    Ive personally never had a 408, but i have READ alot of horror stories with TSP, although ive gone thru them for my cam, headers, and little stuff like that, but seeing how shawn(ecld_07) has ran his, I plan on using Rex as well. Also customer service goes a long way with me and all Ive heard is top notch things about them.

    just my .02
    Good luck and congrats on getting a badass motor!

    Rex is great. He's not who I'm using with my next build, but he does BAD ASS work.
