Billy Briggs Racing engines. He is very well known and reputable, just finished up this LSX for Pro-stock motorcycle rider Eddie Krawick. He's up in Michigan, but is the best and you won't be disappointed. Do a google search on him if you are leary.

If you are set on a pro-charger Steve Morris race engines is the place to go to. He works hand in hand with Procharger doing R&D work and recently released the Provolute which has had some serious gains in HP just by bolting it on to the inlet. He has a website and its...he is also a top notch builder http://www.stevemorrisengines.com/

I spoke with Nelson at the SEMA show about building a motor. I know he can definetly get one done but didn't want to wait 6 months and pay a lot more because of his reputation. I haven't heard of the other guys......Thank you

There are many great engine builders mentioned in this thread, but if you are really set on doing a pro-charger, you would be nuts if you do not speak with Steve Morris. This guy has been doing research and developement for pro-charger for so many years. His resume is huge, mad skills!!!

Good luck- Rich

I can tell you right now, most of the engine builders in this thread are at the top of the heap and aren't going to be your most economical option. Personally, an engine with big power is not the time to shop at walmart. Anybody can build a fairly reliable 350 chevy with a 3/4 cam. Building reliable BIG hp is a different story.
