Default Preferred So Cal LS 6 Engine Builder

LS1 Techer's:

Do you have any preferred engine builders in the So. Cal. Area? I am looking for someone to upgrade and or build a road racing LS6?

I've been looking at Chuck Mallet, Lingfelter, Doug Rippie and Katech and was wondering if there's anyone local who can build a killer LS6 of likes.

Suggestions?

i'd also hit Steve up (Race Engine Development -----> Sponsor) and see what he can do, he's up on Oceanside. to say the dude knows his **** is an understatement. he's the one who does the Darton blocks for Scott @ GenIII.
