Default Who to trust with LSX head work in NE KS or the KC/Topeka area..

Looking for someone to do some head work for me. I'm located in North East Kansas. Willing to to travel a little for the right shop.

I know this might sound dumb, and not close to you, but check out the Napa store in Carrol Iowa. They have an amazing machine shop, run by a gentleman by the name of Larry Demmers (sp), who also races at my last knowledge of him an older corvette. I am not sure what kind of experience he has with the LSX stuff, but he did some heads on my LT1, and also some on my old bosses Nova. He did good work, we both were happy, and I know quite a few of the other people he did work for were happy as well. Worth checking out, just even to talk to him. He has an engine dyno on site, and a flow bench, but you would have to talk to him to find out what brand and model. Here is the number for the store, just ask for the machine shop if you should happen to call: 712-792-4381
Well, I think it is still there, guess you would have to call. Hope this helps

Check out the big dogs as well.

Lingenfelter, Livernois, ECS,

I think you might be suprised that you can get a name brand with great performance, and resale value for just a LITTLE bit more than the local guys....

anyone..... anyone...

I know we're not in your area, but we do heads for retail customers, shops, and the OEM all over the world.

If interested in a quote, please email me at rleblanc@livernoismotorsports.com with what heads you have, what you're looking for, info on the application, etc. and I can forward it to the cylinder head department for a quote.

If it's easier, you can also call Mike in the cylinder head department at 313-561-5500 ex. 2119.

This video is a shop overview and shows our cylinder head department as well.
