You could give CMS a call... click my sig pic for info

They've pretty much built my entire drivetrain on the car and it's a great performer... they are perfectionists and back up their work as well... lemme know if you have any questions about them

There is no reason to drive a **** load of miles out of your way to get to another shop. Any shop can assemble a short block and Strictly is a very good shop and has built countless fast *** cars! I mean when you have people telling you your car has more done to it than it really does even other shop owners they must be doing something right (referring to my own car)
