There was anther guy in Orlando. I forgot his name. He did alot with susp and chassis work but he also did installs and whatnot. Maybe someone recalls him here. Think his username started with an "M". Like "mrr" or something or anther

I think I'll attend the Fbody Empire meet in April 6th at Ace "something" it's listed on this forum I'm sure I can touch base with guys that know this area. I moved here from Broward County in 2017, I knew all the best "go to" gearheads down there.

Perhaps the best LS engine builder in the country is in Pompano Beach.....Air-Flow Tech. Rick Crane is in Melbourne for everything else.

And where is this Empire meet......????

Air-Flow Tech doesn't advertise or even have a website....too much business. He also does all the southeast warranty work for Lingenfelter, Katech and many other shops around the country. Nobody builds engines like that guy. 5-6 second turbo LS powered Grand Nationals to strokers to mild H/C kits. I've spoke to at least 100 people over the years that have his built LS engines and never heard of a failure of any kind.
Rick Crane is an installation and fab shop.....but I don't think he builds engines.

Pompano Beach.....Air-Flow Tech--not finding even a phone number as of yet. How does one contact them? Eagerly seeking a machine shop.

Sorry for the delay responding.

Barry is the owner/builder. 954-771-9319

I know he had some medical issues last year and he was getting better. Hope hes ok. Try calling tomorrow..... Its a voicemail if hes in the shop working, he will call you back as soon as he sees the missed call.

He'll talk your ear off, but in a good way.

I'm giving Performance Race Solutions in Sanford a chance on my 418 LS3 build. I should have the car back within a week, says he offers a 18mo, 10K warranty. It's only the owner and a former GM service technician (25+ years of experience) working in the shop, though, so it can be tedious to make progress when they are busy with other customers. They've done a handful of LS cars in the past year, but before that it's mostly been GTR's, EVO's,, etc, with big boost or nitrous.
