who are your preferred and reputable motor builders
Im in the process of building my all motor ls and was wondering who you guys trust. I was planning on going with JG since they have built motors for me in the past but was wondering who else is out there. Im looking at spending around 4k. for reference with JG I was gonna have there Hi performance pro valve job Stage 2 head with crower 404s and there stage 2 or 3 all motor block. heres a link if your unfamiliar with there work http://www.jgenginedynamics.co....html
So lemme know what quality builders are out there that might be able to do something along those lines for a competive price. TIA

where are you located at. if shipping is not a problem i would go to donf. he builds some straight monsters. if i ever get the cash to do another build he will get it. his motors are also very reiliable.
theres alot of engine builders out there that have good results,its just that some are gonna prefer certain ones

Re: (insomniac791)
I just read insomniac791's post about his DFE built motor and Im going to pm do to see what he thinks about my plans. Any west coast guys wanna chime in. I would like to talk to a couple well known builders before I make the final choice. Its alot of money to toss out and I wanna feel confident in my choice

Being from MD I am partial to Jim Justice, but from what I have seen & heard DonF does excellent work. I just have never had any work done by DonF.

Stewart Racing Engines

Gave us a reliable 360hp motor on a stock stroke and didn't kill the pocket book. Now if only I could drive
They do some pretty reliable SFWD and HR stuff that makes big power also.
