Default Where or where to go?

Got all the parts for a high horse stock block size LS6, but who should I hire to put it together? Just waiting for your opinions.

Do a search on shops around Toronto... make sure to speak with people who have had work done as references! It would also be a good idea to check other sites like the great lakes section of ls2.com for more feedback...

I sent you a PM as well...

You want to make sure you deal with a shop that will give you what you pay for as well as a reasonable time frame...

Definitely give Wade a call at FTR in Pickering ( 905-837-9164). I've had them work on my car numerous times and they always delivered on their promises. Their rates are very reasonable, too.
