Haha. Ended up having to have a custom pulley hub made, so we are still working on that. Once it is completed and installed, I am going to setup freight. I need to make a trip to harbor freight and buy a cherry picker...

Alright all, I finally have the engine/trans at the freight place ready for me to pickup.

Looking for advice on what shops around here are trustworthy and do quality work to swap this in. I have all parts other than driveshaft ready and waiting. I will likely kill this old thread and start a new on the topic, but wanted to provide closure to this year end saga of an engine.

Also entertaining some savvy vet coming over for drinks to assist. Obviously drinks and food are on me.

Looking real nice!

I'd still say you won't go wrong with either:

Aikman Performance. They are super active on Facebook as well, you can see all sorts of things they work on. Jerry is a cool guy to work with.
Aikman Performance Tuning, Repair, Dyno | Chevrolet LS 1-9 | Serving Cedar Park, Lago Vista, Austin, Lakeway, Round Rock, Kyle, Leander, Canyon Lake, TX

or

Dedicated Motorsports
https://www.dedicatedmotorsports.com/

Both have the hub based dynos as well to get the tune dialed in after the install.
