Cost about 2k for the machine work, parts, and labor.That is with a new cam ,oil pump ,springs, arp rod bolts and some other ****. Once they install it for me in the next week are two I will let you know how it sounds and how it runs. By the way had a shop whos not a sponser build it so I don't think I can drop names. I know how much it sucks to blow your motor so good luck

What do you guys think I should do first ls6 intake or the underdrive pulleys or gears? Just wondering cause I can only afford one mod at a time right now since I'm using most of my money to get it tuned.
