Good 4th Gen Shop?

OK I guess I have to sink even more money into this 3800lb paper weight.

Is there any decent shops that can work on 4th gen LT1's on the Lower Mainland?

What specifically are you looking to have done?

As far a "One stop for everything"...there's only one shop I can think of that I would recommend even calling. Tom's Performance in Vancouver WA. He seems to only do high-end applications. Lots of blower/turbo LT1's come out of that place. I haven't had any work done by him yet (i'm getting a tune soon as I get down there), but they have a good reputation, and everyone I've talked to on the phone was extremely knowledgeable in regards to F-bodys.

As far as specifics go, I could help recommend certain places for certain things. (i.e. Engine building, Transmission Building, Exhaust Fabrication).

Not sure what you're looking for.

Hey stranger. I kind of feel the same way about my ride BUT I have someone working on it now whom is getting the job done. I'm very optomistic that I'll finally have everything right.

HOPEFULLY I'll be up and running again in a couple of weeks.

Like you.... a LOOOOOONG story.

I'll shoot you an email

Well I just pulled a plug yesterday and it had water on it so I guess I have a head gasket leak. I'm not sure if I should just try and redo the head gasket or pull the engine and go over the whole thing again.

To answer you question I need a bunch of stuff done from engine work to some custom fab work done under the hood for the new intercooler to some custom exhaust work.
