    Man, if you read the link I was actually still in the Military then, and that was 2003. And no knock on Sunbelt, but PFISpeed in Ft Collins had to redo the top end (was NOT bad work by Sunbelt, no phone calls saying I am bad-mouthing them, they are TOP NOTCH). PFI just had a different way of thinking that's all. It only laid down 248, but I am sure the motor will lay down 250. Depending on the motor you are building you can get equal work done cheaper than SB though. I had no choice b/c it was a QR25DE build... in 03 that motor was 1 year old, so NO shop in the nation was cracking open those blocks other than AEBS, and I was in SC so the logisitcs did not add up. SB built the motors for Realtime Though http://www.team-rtr.com/cars.htm when they debuted the Spec V in World-Challenge. After the 1st year they lost the bid, but not b/c the motor was not competetive.

    EDIT: If you are in a hurry, then you do not want a serious build Bro. I suggest a LOT of patience, and also spec out the build THREE TIMES before you start buying parts. You want to deliver ALL parts from 3rd parties when you drop off the block.

    Thanks.
    Im patient, but they said at least 2 months before they could even start on it.
    Ive had engine built before, but they just seemed too busy to want to take it on.
