    You might want to try AES racing engines...I don't know that much about them, but they're a sponsor on ls1tech and have a following there. Plus they're in Oak grove village, IL. They have a kick-butt deal going on 390" & 408" shortblocks that i'm looking into now.

    I haven't heard too much bad about LME, but agreed on TSP. HKE is great, but if I was spending that much money, I'd call Rex at WCCH.

    I know what you're saying, but sometimes being able to get eyeball to eyeball with a builder is all the difference!
    Especially if you're bigger than him.
