Default lq9 build in va?

i have a brand new lq9 bare block and i want to get it built by a good shop in the area. i want va speed to do the build but i cant get them to answer any of my pms. this will be for a d1sc or f1a procharger so it will have to handle boost. i wish i could do it myself but it probably wouldnt last long. what do you guys think

Never had much luck calling the shop through the 2 motors I had built there... But, another vote for Shawn at VA Speed. Def the best shop to go to bar none. I've had most luck with sending PMs to Shawn.

If that don't work, you can drive up to Deleware and go to Race Proven Motorsports! I have a built lq9 402 stroker with a procharger D1SC with 12 lbs of boost in a full weight 02 camaro running 10.0s. Good Luck
