ls2 402 I know I will get allot of opinions but I would like to hear all of them. Who builds the best 402 ls2 based short block asem. Please tell me Y you think they are the best. I am not looking for cheap I want quality. I can do the build myself but for the cost of the short blocks that I have seen verses getting a block and then doing the machine work and the build it is not worth the savings. I do not build engines for a living anymore but I use to work for an engine shop awile back.
Thanks

I have looked at Weber, Scoggin-Dickey, Texas speed, and now Speed inc. I know of a 10.2 nitrous feed Trailblazer ss that is runnig a Texas speed 402 and it is working real well. The other guys look like they have real good products to I hope to get more feedback. I do not really care for negative thing about anyone but I would like to hear why you like the short block builder that you have positive things to say about.
Thanks

Fraser, can you update the engine packages page to list 3 motors.
402 short block
418 short block
418 long block
page in reference: http://www.speedinc.com/enginepackages.cfm
And if possible please list the crank hp on the 418/L92 long block.
And would the 418 long block cost the same as the 402/L92 long block?

I would talk to Marcus or Allen over at Xtreme Horsepower in Texas. Extremely helpfull to their customers and build an awesome shortblock. They have several engine packages and are all a great deal. I ordered mine on a thursday and it showed up Monday!!
Heres deal, we haven't had any down time on our engine builds, so haven't had a reason to update the page. In most recent issue of GMHTP our 418 engine package is listed.
Depends on N/A or Boost however
$4650
CompStar rotating assembly, diamond or wiseco pistons, p/moly rings, Clevite H series main & rod bearings, ARP main studs.
Balanced rotating assembly, Alignment honed main journal, deck plate honed, deck squared, deck height set to piston specifications.
