Best vendor for built motor?

And the price is important, but not as much as AFTER SERVICE!!!
You are spending large amount of money, and don't be fooled by the parts list or lil cheaper price. Go with the best Customer review!

Try IPP. They seem to have good prices and they are in Texas.

We have done alot of VQ builds here lately, and have been shipping alot of them out lately.

I have heard only good things about Sharif and his company, hence my car is built by him. Customer service (what little I've needed) has been top notch. His screen name is sharif@forged, you could PM him on here or better on my350Z.com and he would answer any and all questions you may have.
Good Luck,

1 thing you should also pay attention to before you leap in, buying a built motor from the shop you are going to get it tuned at, will CYA for later... that way no one gets to play the blame game.

Thanks for all the input guys, I went ahead and decided on IPP. I've read about Kyle's work across multiple sites for years! and I know he's the man to go to when you need work on a Nissan Engine. He'll be tuning my car as well later down the road... Longblock Stage 2 with a few extra goodies here we come!!!... woot! I can't wait...
