Anyone with feedback about ATK? Looking at there OEM LQ9 short block as one of my options. Plan to call them in a day or two and thought I’d get something out here before I do.

I used a ATK bare block 4.03 finished bores. I wanted to assemble the engine myself. So far it’s been great.

Thanks, ATK is one option.

I have a local shop I have used a lot but they may be slipping a bit lately so I’m looking for options.

I have a short block that needs to be cleaned up so I could go that route, just not sure about timing as well. Local shops that are still running are SLAMMED in my area.

Texas Speed is another option but I don’t think I want to forge this bottom end so they are a bit pricey for what I need/want.

ATK seemed like the only place with an OE like build which is why I’m here asking some pre-questions.

I just bought one myself. .030 over flat top short block. Haven't run it yet as Im still in the process off gathering parts. Got it from Summit, free delivery to my house.

If you don’t mind me asking

How long did it take and what made you pull the trigger? Also did you get a balance sheet?
