well what are you going to be doing with the new motor- FI, N20, N/A?

You can go fro mmild to wild very quickly.

shop around and call some of the sponsors up and have them help you out, and don't take just one companies/ persons opinion.

I highly recomend HKE. Erik will hook you up with what ever you need at a very reasonable price.
Nice Crew at HKE

They do good work, and so does TSP. I am on the fence between the two, but will probably go with LME do to their location.
