To All:

I know this company is not a sponcer on this site, however, I found them to be very helpful on one of my projects, and I thought I would pass along my experiance in an effort to help the fellow enthusiest on this site. I know there are a number of very competent sponcers on this site, many of which I have done business with, and many others I've been in contact with that I am planning to work with in the future.

I sincerely hope, and it is certainly not ment to be offensive, to any of the quality sponcers on this site. Please keep this in mind as you read this.

I had the opportunity to Visit Mast Motorsports this last weekend (They are not very far from where I live) and meet with the guys that design and build these engines. I was very impressed with the facilities and their knowledge in putting the right parts together and getting them tuned to make big power at a real fair price.

Check out their website (Below) and see what kind of engines they offer. I was able to get a very complete LS3 (427 ci.) that makes 600+ hp for $13,000, and this includes just about everything you need to get it running. They Dyno each Engine and give you the Dyno sheet, and they used really high quality parts.

I just bought a Engine for one of my projects and I am fired up. Here are the specs:

Once again, this is for general information purposes only. I had a very good experiance and just wanted to let some of the people here know about it. Please don't let anything I said here keep you from investigating and patronizing the sponcers on this site. My experiances with the fine vendors on this site have ALWAYS been positive and I was very please with the fit for the application andthe quality of the items I purchased.

Thanks,

Ty
