I keep hearing about Revolution Raceworks. I know Ahmad just got his short block built by them. I'll have to make the drive to see the facility and talk to them. Who do you deal with over there?

I've only talked to frank and mike (aka zippy) . Zippy is the one who has been tuning my truck the last couple years, best in the biz IMO.I guess they just got there dyno in also it should be up and working next week is what frank said today. Once I get the turbo on I think I'll be hauling the truck down there for a dyno tune.
