What are you looking to do....
I see you have 15k for mods but what do YOU want.
The reason Andy won't work on F-body's is because of the "garage" mechanic reputation. He doesn't want to spend hours trying to "fix" a car before he can start to actually get some performance out of it.

JUICED....im gonna go with the ATI setup, but i want h/c, so might as well forge the bitch and avoid future problems. ive been talking to ANDY by email, maybe he can guide me thru the build, but i still rather have a shop do everything.

intercooled 347 D1 with the sdpc pulleys is all you need. You can get away with a stock 02-04 zo6 cam and ls2 heads. an use the money you saved on a rear axle.
Andy is a good guy, talk to Rob at Strictly Performance (rob55 on here) he has alot of experience with ATI setups.

lol.....thats what i started with.....about half of that is gone now.
JUICED_ id like to be in the +600rwhp but not with a huge cam. i liked what i saw on hptv with lsgun, they made 580 i think. so i dont see why i cant reach my goal with some better parts.

Well Strictly Performance Motorsports is where I say to take it.....I may be slightly bias tho! 
He's in Van Nuys also so he's not far.
If you ever read GM-HighTech you'll always see one of Rob's cars in there at some point in time. He actually has a few go'n in there in a month! Whats good for GMHighTech is sure as hell good enough for any of us!......Actually ,...I have the article he was in when he was adding AFR's Mongoose heads on a Vette sit'n right in front of me at my desk!

I would take it to strictly but just be prepared to keep it there a while.I just went recently and he works on some badass cars.There was a TT set up for a GTO making 900 hp.Rob works on practically LS1/LS6/LS7/LS2. Whats up Rampage we met when I took my car to put the intake on.I feel the difference from a 4000 rpm.

....That was you?!...****!....Whats up!That cars finished now!....It had some issues before it came in that Rob was try'n to track down before he released it with a now Twin Turbo setup on it. Thats why it took awhile. Hey,...didn't you also have Rob do a cam swap for you also?

No I don't know!...Maybe you should explain...
..Did he work on your car and it blew up on you?
Have you even been to the shop?
Have you ever even spoken to Rob?
Do you work for OR are friends with one of his competitors?
Or..... Did someone say something bad about him and your just perpetuating it by tell'n everyone "Don't take it there....this and that will happen?"....
....please.....explain because he does pump out some of the fastest LS powered vehicals out there so I'd just love to hear why someone would say NOT to take it there!
