I just wanted to post that i am in the process of building an engine through AP Engineering. I have had all of my questions and concerns answered fast and friendly. They gave me many options from budget to high dollar and have been extremely Helpful. I have received a few PM's from people in Michigan refering me to them even after i decided to go with them. Thanks APE, i look forward to our buildup.

Thats a good price!!! I like how you use the Eagle rods and are still cheaper that everyone else and they use stock rods.

Thanks guy's just trying to help and bring a better product to the market! If you remember when I brought Diamond Pistons to this board no buddy had really heard of them and the LS1 market was not being taken care of by the other pistons manufactures. Now how many people on this board have heard of Diamond pistons? Also how many people are running them? It's a pretty big amount and they carry a lot of shelf pistons to help lower the cost so you don't have to buy customs. Well that is the same thing I am trying to do now with my company. Give you guy's a good quality product and make it affordable. I am open to any suggestion you guy's may have that will help me bring this a long.

Thanks again.

Well, I will take a moment to give some props again. Chris was extremely helpful at diamond and I may have been the 1st one to order a 409 Stroker as he took APE over..in fact, odered 2 409s from them in the past month. After dealing w. Chris and the crew over the phone, its hard for others to meet your expectations. Fair prices , good service and I'm betting on an excellent build to boot! Thanks again to Chris and Brian for answering the damn phone and always getting back during such a busy expansion.

Jammer, no problem that is what we are here for. You were the first to order the short blocks. Let John know that I spoke with Eagle today and cranks are on the way. Should be here before the end of the week. Also your Callies is going to ship out on Thursday. So we should have both cranks no later than next Monday. On John's engine that is all we are waiting for. Thanks for the props.

Thanks

Cool, As of tonight, the engines will be topped with Jays Stage 3's (LQ9's). FYI, John is now using 2.08's so relief adjustments may be necessary?

Hey Scoobie when are you expecting your motor to be done and have you decided on a cam? If so what size?

Hey Mike, Mine will probably be finished last. Jay is doing the Heads now. I also sent him my LS6 intake and ordered on of his 80mm TB's. When its all said and done he will ship it to AP-E, most likely around the middle of this month. I have a good friend who lives in michigan with a WS6. He is coming down the first week of March. His cousin whom i know is driving my car back up to michigan on the return trip where AP-E will begin the tear down/ install / tune. Im also replacing the Ypipe, catback, fuel system and adding a 12 bolt. Its going to be a who new car. Those JPR heads should shine. You have the HVLD design ones?

I believe AP Engineering is going to have a great year this year with some very satisfied customers. After meeting with Chris, Brian and the rest of the crew at their shop and seeing the attitude and approach to business, I would be surprised if my prediction doesn't come to fruition (spelling?).

Well it seems they are definantly going in a 110% opposite direction than the former owners were. And they already have some wicked cars in the stables, just no one knows of them quite yet. I hope to be one of them after they tie up about 398,756 loose ends that were left on my car and get it on the dyno to tune the new motor/blower/trans combo.
Kudos on starting to get some pub to the shop, and actually being there to help.

PS Chris did you get my PM about a buddy I have that wants to get a qoute from you on a motor buildup for NOS? If not let me know.
