Give Rich Kimble at Kimble Motorsports a call. He has built a few motors for me including the one in my Open Road Race car that got me into the 200mph club and 206mph. He is rebuilding my 01 Corvette ZO6 twin turbo motor right now. His number is 323-9950 and is located on Emerald between Curtis and Orchard.

Default Glad to hear it

Rich is a good guy. He is not the quickest, but maybe that is just my cars since I have 3 Vettes, he works on mine when he wants. He will always do right by you.
He can also put a killer tune on your car. Not a dyno tune, but real life recordings done on the road over all types of driving. So you get an overall tune not just WOT.

I live in Boise as well.

Kimble is a good guy, he is doing a buddys 383/D1 install.

I am personaly a fan of out of state work, had quiet a few bad experiences localy. Outsource Idaho and install yourself, save some money
