be careful with GTM engines.

You definitely do not want a stroker with a vortech setup. It's a waste. Just do an engine build and get ourself a T trim and you'll be flying.

A simple build is PLENTY for a SC set-up.

Lo2ay, I'm sorry to hear about your engine failure. I know your one of the few that track your Z so hard in your region so atleast you've put your car into good use before it let go!!

as to weither to ship a built engine from the states or get the parts and build it locally, as said before if you have a compatible vq engine builder who knows what he's doing and actually built Z/G engines then I'd go that route, otherwise I'd save my self headache and get a forged performance s1 sb and be done with it, their engine has proven to be good for as much as 700whp, not to mention it'll save you alot of $$$ in the long run, if you know what I mean!

IMO, keep your engine build simple, meaning no need for a stroker. remember that the more complicated your setup the more the chance to get problems, and I'm sure you dont want to waste time troubloeshooting these problems.
