Default Parts source for lsx internals?

Where do you diy guys source your parts from? Every time I add up a parts list it's more expensive than what a builder would charge including the labor and machine work. I'm doing it wrong. Help!

I've ordered LS parts of all sorts from WS6 Store since 2001 and Mike is always helpful. WS6 Store was a key player in helping get the right parts for my 416 LS build that Norris Motorsports did.

Two other favorites the helped a lot were Reher - Morrison & Hawk's Motorsports.

All three are A+

Likewise, BTR, TEA & LPE have all been excellent to work with in my experience.

Thompson Motorsports, BMR, and WS6 Store have been the most helpful to me, and I've dealt with them on numerous occasions

We keep just about everything you could possibly want for an LS build on the shelf at very competitive prices. Give us a shout if we can help.

Thank you HCI2000SS again for the recommendation.
