Way too much to list, but aswell as HQ give a couple others a call. Baisley, T-man, Dave Mackie. After talkin with these guys, you should have a good understanding of what type of build you want & any of these shops would be a great choice! Ask alot of questions about anything you don't understand & they'll explain! Hp & tq will vary on where you want your power, so don't worry so much about the peak #'s & comparing charts!

What Chad said; I'm a fan of HQ but there are others, for sure. My 103 makes 111hp/117tq and there's lots of 103's with higher numbers, but with HQ's build I've got 100ft lbs at 2200rpm; now that's useable fun! Check BOTH ends of the dyno chart to see where the power really is.....
