Did you ever run your car before to get a 1/4mi time. The engine will feel a lot better totally freshened up. I'm not too far away from pulling my engine (new one on stand). Is it a local shop that your having do the work.

Never did run the 1/4 but I did notice a nice boost in power with the hot cam and headers already. I am going with the local engine shop here in town.
Is your new motor an LT1? What have you done to it? Did you build it yourself?

I'm staying with the LT1. It isn't a cost friendly engine. You can find shortblocks, but I would rather have one that wasn't built just to resell. You don't know where they cut corners. I bought a block and did a total rebuild (all new parts). A local shop assembled the shortblock for me.
