Default Phamspeed Contactors

Guys, I just found out the phamspeed is working with ground zero motor sports. I just called and placed an order for their kit with the pte 76gts. If you need to contact them they are at 503-256-3278. Just wanted to help everyone else out who has been trying to contact them. Thanks.

BTW, I can't wait to get my kit. Turnaround is only about a month.

Congrats!! I ordered the same kit minus the intercooler since I've already got one. I can't wait to get it and get to work installing it. Just curious, where are you planning on getting your car tuned at? I live near the WV MD border and the closest place that I've been able to find was Rapid motorsports in PA.

Reading PA I think. http://www.rapidmotorsports.com/ they're a sponsor here.
I know strope's speed shop works on a lot of LS1's and they're in Washington PA which is real close to me when I'm at college, but I've heard tons of horror stories about that place. I've heard nothing but positives about Rapid and plus they're a sponsor.

I will be tuning my car. I have ls1edit unlimited and have a small tuning business. The only thing though is that I will have to get into the hp tuners 3 bar setup when it comes out to tune for the forced induction. I have tuned blower cars before but they were not seeing over 8 psi.

Sweet does he do engine block machining? I am having a hard time finding a sponsor that will do the work in my area... I work in DC but work on my car in Pittsburgh... spreads me out pretty good but still haven't come accross a good shop to have my block prepped at. Any suggestions?

Not trying to pay shipping costs and I'd rather meet the people doing the machining becacuse I have a ton of questions... never built up an LS1 before.

He does the full gammet but is very backed up right now. I spoke with him (over email) about a short block and he was 8-10 weeks out. Good luck. You can find his link on the right.

I have been trying to get some info from them. Do they still have the budget kit for $2,300? if so how much Boost & does it have all the necessary parts to install & get the car running?

DO A SEARCH. search for user LT1-7 ie John Pham and he started a thread talking all about the new kits.the prices have gone up quite a bit but still worth the money IMO
