Default Good place to buy a engine?
I'm looking for a reputable place to buy a forged 370 or 402. I want your opinion on where to buy it and who will stand behind there stuff the best.
Not a whole lot of options here in Iowa and not alot of machine shops that know alot about LSx motors so I'm thinking mail order??

sponsors are on the right.

Texas Speed is good. and I think WCCH (west coast cylinder heads) builds engines as well. As I recall they built one for USABodyGuard

Thanks for the referrals guys! We can get you set up with anything from a forged stock cube engine to an LSx 454! Shoot me a PM with what you have in mind, and I can out together a detailed quote for you. We even have quite a few built short-blocks in stock and ready to ship in the most common/popular configurations!
