Default Props to Josh@Spartan Performance

When I first got my Trans Am I took it to one of the "big name" speed shops that specialize in LSx's. After spending a ton of $ and getting horrible workmanship done to my car I needed someone that knew about building cars and was honest. I found Spartan Performance on here and contacted Josh. Since then he has built my car over 100whp more than it was and corrected all of the horrendous workmanship that the "big name" guys had done to my car. All of this at literally half the cost I would have paid at the "big name" shops.

The car runs like a champ and I can drive the hell out of it knowing it will be reliable to take me to work everyday.

Hey Josh if you're looking for a slogan here's one: Twice the quality for half the price!

Why not mention the "big name" shop? It may save someone else a ton of money as well.

I don't want to knock anyone's business but rather give props to a damn good mechanic that treats his customers right.

Do you have said FAST 90/90? If not I will have my FAST 92/92 combo, which is also ported for sale. And conviently enough, it will be at Spartan Performance!

I just picked up a LS1 block to rebuild and I live in the atlanta area. Can any of you guys give me a good shop where I can take the block and get it checked, and also someone to check the crank set it up new bearings, and balance the rotating assembly?
