Having been down the same road not too long ago, you DO get what you pay for. Considering what MTI's package includes, I would say that's a great price for quality of the components and workmanship that goes into their cars...top it off with a warranty for some piece of mind, how could you go wrong?

<strong> I'd like to help out here and respond to some of the above posts. First, here is how our package is broken down:
'98 - '00 F-Body
Stage II Cylinder Heads $2795. exch.
Camshaft Selection $399.
Gaskets/Bolts/Push Rods/ $350.
Plugs/Wires/Fluids
FLP Headers $1295.
Corsa Exhaust $650.
Power Induction w/Filter $179.
Underdrive Pulley Kit $279.
Dyno Tuning Session $500.
LS6 Intake Manifold Kit $475.
That's $6922. in parts/tuning alone.
Installation is the remaining $1073.
The '01 - '02 cars are less due to the vehicle already being equipped with the LS6 manifold.
We are willing to customize the package however the individual would like. Custom Cam, Hooker headers, no pulley, etc... The package online is purely an example of what we can offer in kit form and customizing is not a problem.
We do offer a 1 year warranty with our package that covers anything we replaced on the vehicle. Vehicles with any type of forced induction are not covered. As far as consequential damages go, if a valve were to drop and take out a piston, the piston/engine would be replaced at our expense. On the other hand, if the rear gear were to break due to the extra power/torque generated by our package, that would not be covered! This is one major advantage of dealing with a company who has been in business for 10 years now. We stand behind our products and take very good care of our large customer base.

Let's say someone has a cam package bought and installed at your shop. Someone in the shop makes a mistake by using the wrong valve springs or even worse forgets to swap the springs before firing it up. One way or another the valves float to the extent that a piston smacks a valve. The damage is only to the extent that the motor should hold up just fine at the current power level with no indications of problems even though the pistons have nicks in them from the incident. We both know that motor could not handle a moderate amount of nitrous anywhere near as well as it could have if that incidient never happened. Would you inspect the damagae and just make sure the car runs okay and deliver the car to the customer like that, or make the shortblock like it was when it enetered the shop? Seems like the damaged pistons should be replaced, right? </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">great question, for the price you are paying, they had better change out the whole shortblock, all impacted drivetrain components AND put in some forged internals. (at least that would explain some of their great customer service i keep hearing about). i experienced a similar problem when doing my own h/c job this winter. with weak springs, ended up bending the valves. i replaced the springs/valves and of course couldnt resist putting the spray back on. nuked the motor the first time out. ugh, live and learn... ..if you encounter bent valves, replace EVERYTHING. <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> my .02 </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">so is anyone going to confirm their stance on this <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
