VRE 383 Turbo LT1
Contact Eric at Victory, the original poster of this thread. He's very easy to talk to and doesn't badger you into buying something beyond what you need. As a matter of fact, he evaluated my HP goals and recommended against what I said I wanted in terms of compression ratio and ring choice because he said my specification was too low and would result in soggy performance at low RPM. I wanted Hellfire rings but he said they were overkill and more expensive than what my goals warranted. Great guy!
funny how that happens
I hear you on long time coming. I think I've been planning this build for something 4-5 years now. Only really got started building it last summer. Eric and VRE are defintiely good to deal with. Helped me out getting new heads when FedEx lost mine

We have a few customers that are dragging their cars in from other states, so their kits are going to be custom. As for this kit, we have the jigs and plan on producing them as order come in.
This is great news for the LT1 community. Kit appears to have great fit & finish, not to mention it retains all the stock OEM items. 
Can we get some videos of this car running, on the dyno and getting it on the street ? I know I'm asking alot, but this is a very nice car and I think it would make everyone happy to see such a nice example of a LT1 up & running.

The kit has been up a running for a little while now. The customer actually has the vehicle, and has put a little over 800 miles on the new combination. We are suppose to dyno the vehicle on Friday, as long as the transmission gets rebuilt and reinstalled in time.
The build time is 4 weeks. It took us 15 days to complete the first set up, but I would rather give you a time and be earlier and not later.
