Best shop for my LT1hozb817 10-23-2003, 12:53 PM I am looking for a good performance shop to take my 94 LT1 can anyone help me out. Thanks eagleknight97 10-23-2003, 03:53 PM For starters, where are you located? That would help alot. If in Illinois, while not having personal experience with either place, I have heard pretty good things about Speed Inc. and FLP. They both seem like decent places, but like i said, i have no personal experience. hozb817 10-23-2003, 04:42 PM I am In illinois, around the gurnee area. I have herd good and bad about speed inc, and FLP, I herd has the best Longtubes for my LT1. Have you herd of HPA?? flyinZ 10-23-2003, 05:37 PM I took my 94'z to Billingsley Racing, in Decatur,IL www.Billingsleyracing.biz Email/Call them, and tell them what you want to do. He'll set you up right.:bow: stik6shift93 10-23-2003, 11:40 PM what kind of work are you looking to get done, some shops are better at certain things. hozb817 10-24-2003, 09:28 AM I am looking to get some transmission work done. After thats taken care of I am going to do Longtubes, true dual exhaust, I was also thinking about a 396 stroker kit and a Moser 12 bolt. Anything else in between as well. 94 Z28 A4 SLP CAI, Z06MAF, 160Termo.,Power Tune,Transgo shift kit, 4.10's, and Flowmaster exhaust. best et 13.51@104mph SMOKINV8 10-24-2003, 10:19 AM If you're needing a motor built (or tranny for that matter), take it to Billingsley. :thumb: I'm sure they can do anything else you're needing done as well, but they have turned out some pretty mean cars. flyinZ 10-24-2003, 03:24 PM Originally posted by SMOKINV8 If you're needing a motor built (or tranny for that matter), take it to Billingsley. :thumb: I'm sure they can do anything else you're needing done as well, but they have turned out some pretty mean cars. Yes they have...;) WhtLT1 10-24-2003, 08:04 PM Legend Racing in Schaumburg has built some killer LT1 stoker motors, u might want to check doug out. He just built a 406, I think that's what it was, stroker LT1 for a buddy and it flys!!! He also can get u the trans work. So give him a call 847-923-8979 joecool72 10-27-2003, 07:05 PM I've heard more great things about Speed, Inc. than I have bad. Most of the guys I run into at gatherings or shows have done lots of work there, including myself. Although I've had some fairly easy bolt-ons done (simply because I don't have the tools or space) I wouldn't hesitate with them doing more work on all my rides. Also, with you being so close to Wauconda, it wouldn't hurt to check out Dyno Pro Performance. We had a dyno day there from www.fbodyowners.com that was a lot of fun. Don't know their reputation, but it might be worth looking into simply being so close to you. http://www.dynoproauto.com Good luck! hozb817 10-28-2003, 09:16 AM Thankx joe cool, I also have had bolt ons done by Speed and they have turned out ok. My buddy just got his longtubes, cam, dyno tune, and a couple of other things done by speed, a day later a head gasket blew, he took it to speed, they fixed it, 2 days passed and the opposite head gasket blew. They also dynoed him at 290 at the wheels which is definatly not right. Thats why I am looking for a better shop.

If you don't mind me asking, what company (or cam) did he use? hozb817 10-29-2003, 11:31 AM LT4 Hot Cam Kit | ||
