Try looking at what Lloyd Elliot has to offer... eportworks.com and Joe Overton...lethaefi.com

They both do great work.

check on cameroz28.com as there are alot of people with both setups.

They did my stuff. Could not be happier!!! You can not go wrong with PortPros! Give them a call before you call the others. I have installed and run heads by LE, GTP, and Port Pros. They are all good but Port Pros takes the cake! They do great block work and engine assy's as well. My hydraulic cammed 396 LT1 with AFR 227 LT4 heads 250 shot went 9.8's @ 140+ mph.

Ran ok on motor.....had a hydraulic nitrous cam and some timing pulled out but it ran 10.90's @ 128 n/a. Could have been better but we built it for nitrous use.

You can see the nitrous vid on my website. fast93z.com

Car had very little suspension mods at that time. Stock shocks, springs, rear sway bar.....etc. Only pulled 1.45 60ft
