LMT is a good shop, I personally know people who love them or hate em, some people think they play with the dyno numbers, but I also know people who are very happy with their work

I only know of one other person that is as far north as I am in the great state of Wisconsin. I doubt my bastard child would make it down to your parts unless I'm going to Rock Falls. Rock Falls is way south to me.

We need to start thinking about Automotion for 2014. Anybody getting a hotel? We should all get rooms at the same hotel or at least meet up.. There are a ton of fbodys there every year. We need to organize something.. Last year we only had like 6 or 7 people actually show up at the horse..

As far as tuners, West Bend Dyno has done some amazing stuff. They tuned my Z-28 and it flys for a lid/exhaust car..

I'm in Janesville. I used to organize the Midwest spring & fall cruises, but haven't done it for a few after my car went down. It's back on the road now, but not sure if I'll do any more cruises.

I have the stock T56 from my '01 vette in Milwaukee. I also have the stock flywheel & clutch, 241 heads, stock cam, rockers, and lifts. I upgraded a bunch of stuff recently and haven't gotten around to putting up a for sale thread yet. Sent you a PM.

Happy new year everone.... lol

Hows everyone doing?!? Projects coming along?

I dropped off one of my LQ4 blocks to see if i could go to 4.065"... no dice
Tore down another one of my LQ4 complete motors, i'll drop it off monday so hopefully i will have better luck.

Just going to be OEM LS3 pistons and rods with ARP 2000 bolts, ARP main studs. Improved racing pan baffle with f-body pan. Have 243 heads, head studs, LS6 intake manifold,throttle body fuel rails and 42lb. injectors. Debating having my heads CNC ported at wegners... ill have to see if i feel like throwing more money at this motor. If it somewhat hooks and isnt a complete handful i will do a full build next winter and possibly go single turbo.

My black 02' S2000 should have a LQ4 mocked up in it this week, re-lipped and barreled my CCW LM20's to a 18x10 +16 (4" lip 6" barrel) and a 18x11.5 +31 (4.5" lip 7" barrel) I'll be moving to a 5" lip in rear eventually. Def. not stock body lmao

My project is still chillin on jackstands, just cab and chassis right now. Still have to degrease the frame, paint it, and put my suspension on, once I get my rearend back from Skeeter. Having no heat in the garage and no room to work on anything, I have no motivation to work on it though.
