How about we stop being a dick and simply appreciate a company supporting our cars?

Nothing. I think it's awesome another option is in the game. Just drives me crazy when everyone claims to be the best.

Again, no bad intentions I was just inquiring. I'm not too far from you guys in DFW so I'm sure at some point I could use the service.

We ship worldwide! In fact, some people appreciate being just the other side of the Texas border so they don't pay Texas sales tax

Exciting stuff. And near enough to me that I can do a local pickup. Good to know as I begin planning a 427 to replace my 230K and going LS1.

Came across this thread re-exploring LS1Tech. I've had one contact with TSP (a quote) and that was pleasant and I felt the rep was knowledgable and helpful. So my experience was positive so far.
