Fahad,

Very few people have pushed the LSX to the limits that you are looking for. All the Cars you see running low 8's and into the 7's had the engines built by LME or W2W.

If you where looking for a SBC then the list can go on for pages. My motor Was built by W2W, you cant go wrong with the Knowledge that Billy Briggs has. GM uses W2W for R&D and Special Projects.

I would suggest Cartek except for the carb thing.
Eastside builds strong nitrous motors.
Not sure how much LSX work he does but Pat Musi also builds serious nitrous motors as well.

RevXtreme is a shop completely staffed with champion drag racers and have propbably more experiance with drag motors (not road-race...Katech, LG, etc. are the kings there) than any other LS shop in the country. Just have to know your goals & we can meet them. The RevX team has drag cars running as fast as 6.80's in the 1/4 on alky or race gas. If the budget is big enough they can meet most any goal you have.

w2w would be the people to talk to, they know about all the newest stuff and probably could set you up with a complete motor with all the goodies.

All the companies that you guys mentioned is really great and i already know them currectly. i ask W2W about a shortblock 402ci boost motor before a week and they said we need 3 to 4 months to build that engine for you and they don't offer any LSX motors in stock.

I already contact to the LME and waiting for their answer. hopefully soon

I found some LSX motors in stock from some companies and i like one of them it's BRE www.beckracingengines.com and i really like their works with my respect to all companies and i don't have any informations or how is their results on the drag races so can you guys help me out with them PLEASE!

Thanks a lot!

you could try nelson racing engines. I know they have lsx stuff listed on their website, and they do know how to make big power, not cheap though.

I hear good things about LME, I have not personal experience with them. It's worth waiting for folks who are strong in the LSx scene like W2W.

I am sure that we can meet and exceed your needs in ANY drag racing application. We have put many SBC cars into and past the 7's. Our machine work is second to none and is done completely in-house, there is no engine machining that is outsourced here. We have machined and assembled engines for some of the top names in racing such as Skuza Motorstports and Ken Veney Racing.

If you want more than the sponsors try Google. I don't know if you have heard of that before.

A little Google search:

There are alot of excellent engine builders out there....but for drag racing very few have anywhere near the experiance we do. We are graduates of Reher Morrison Racing Engine building school, one of the most respected drag motor builders & GM R&D facilities in the world. We also race what we build and do a google search on each of our drivers/employees:

Troy Williams Jr. drag race
Emily Lewis drag race
Kenny Underwood Drag race
JP Hickmon drag race
Chris Adams drag race
Jon Siegel drag race
Jeff Keen drag race

(Add the drag race at the end to condense the search)

We may be no better than many shops in other areas, but in drag racing there is not a LS based shop in the country that comes close to our experiance in drag racing.

Want referals?

Ask any of the following:

Jeg Coughlin
Peter Biondo
Gary Williams
Dave Connolly

Not taking away from any of the others mentioned, just pointing out this is where we excell over any other shop we know.

I am not with W2W anymore, but I still can build LS engines that will be powerful and reliable. If you want to work with a non sponsor try Patterson racing engines, they have some LS experiance and build many winning comp type small block engines.
