Re: What do you guys think of AP-Engineering 383 Shortblock? Their pricing looks very good, especially the 400+ ci motors. I'd like to hear more about their reputation.
RED QUASAR - How long have these guys been around??? Do you know personally of them????

Re: What do you guys think of AP-Engineering 383 Shortblock? Yes I know of them. I have had my car dynoed there a couple of times. Tom (FSTR-THANU) can speak more on them. So can Chris from DIAMOND pistons. Chris and APE put together Toms LS1 Camaro that went 9.41 last year on the footbrake.

Re: What do you guys think of AP-Engineering 383 Shortblock? The guys at APE are great. I've never actually taken my car there for work because I do it myself, but I'll be getting it tuned by them this year. I agree that there will be some big stuff lurking from APE. Rich is a great guy.

Re: What do you guys think of AP-Engineering 383 Shortblock? If it helps any, I build all of the engines for APE. We have done Tom's 9 second, 414 LS1 and we also did his Vette when he had it. The shop specializes in LS1 & LT1 powered cars. In the Detroit area, they are the best shop for an LS1 powered car to go to. They also have a very good dyno there and are able to tune your car too!!
