Who builds a good stroker short block?

I may be in the market for a new shortblock depending on how mine looks after tear down. Just looking to get some ideas of who builds a reliable and sturdy 383 for nitrous. Thanks

I also really liked the Feedback and info I got from Chat at www.golenengineservice.com He knows his stuff.

I have given up on my idea of getting AFR's and an LT4 intake manifold. I am planning to have Lloyd do a LE3 job on my heads. That way I can atleast have some fun my original shortblock while I make the 3500 for the forged 383 shortblock that I'll stick the LE3 cam into.

Also liked everything Lloyd has told me

I've heard nothing but good things about nutek motors, they've been around for a while and know their stuff.

I have a camaro performers or superchevy magazine that raved about http://www.nu-tekmotorsports.com/ and I liked what I saw. but... as you can see... that website is down, and has been for a long time. Let's hope they're still making engines.

LS1speed.com and comination motorsports both sell pre build shortblocks. The price ls1speed is going for isn't so bad either.
