Default Reputable Z Engine Builder

I have a long block laying around that I was thinking about building. Who should I look to to build this engine? Or who should I look towards for the parts?

GTM, Forged Performance, Performance Factory, etc.

just about any sponsoring vendor. i've heard that AAM had some bad customer service issues, but i didn't have any direct experience with them and i'm also not gonna try to find any links for u

use the *search* function, its very helpful

They make unbelievable power, and the engines last forever under some insane abuse...

You have an HR long block? How'd you laid your hands on that?

What exactly are you looking for then? Because if you're just looking for a good shop to build your block, you're full of crap if you say you searched.

Also, what kine block is it... DE or HR?

if u were looking for an HR specific build, u wouldn't find anything cause there isn't anything. if u were just looking for just z (03-06 included) and didn't find anything, then ur not looking hard enough

GTM is the only one that's built an hr so far. its the vq37hr G37 that they build for sema, but they're not done with the r&d on it from what i gathered, they didn't even post dyno sheets for it yet cause they say they're to busy with customer cars to be working on there own. so if ur serious about getting ur engine built, call GTM, they are a very reputable shop, and having a potential customer is sure to add a little inspiration to getting the the r&d done faster (think late nights)
