These things are expensive as hell. But this is the only company I have had actually stand behind their product. So its worth its weight in gold.

Tore my car all the way apart. Sold the trans, sold the motor, rear axle, convertor, intercooler, driveshaft. Pretty much starting over.
First I found a sweet deal on a darton sleeved ls1 block that I was going to buy a set of trick flow heads for. They I decided for any odd reason if I broke the motor and the heads were damaged I would be pretty sad.

Did you go with the Next2 upgrade on the block, being your turboed? It was like $800.00 more. Very Nice build you got going there. Should be friggen insane.

I bought a motor plate since I have been doing so much ls work lately. The local machine shop to me here in northern michigan has some pretty nice equipment but rarely do this stuff. This turbo is soooooo sexy.
