well, since i was the Midwest F-Body Associations WI Chapter moderator for a while, I should do my duty.... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

if you need engine machining done, there really isn't any place here in WI that has done LS1 setups, so for the money you'd best go with one of the sponsors from the board. if you need part installs, like a motor install, contact the guys at Speed Inc. They are one of the sponsors of the MFBA site as well as this site. Have done all the work I ever needed on my car I couldnt' do myself, and will continue to do so in future. They are in the suburbs of chitown and it's not that far of a drive for me coming from Milwaukee

hehe, didn't see your other post about dropping your car off there already, but like i said, nothing around here. i'd trust C&S Performance to do some work on my car seeing i'm friends with a few of the workers there, but again, they haven't done anything LS1 before, so it's trial and error for them. They are in Butler, WI just north of Capital on 124th street.
