Personally I would go with GT, he's done several of my motors,( maybe this Andy you speak of).
But that's me, I know everyone has a budget, but call the dude out and prove he's worked for Gary.past paychecks,W-2 . If he has I'm sure he wouldn't mind setting your mind at rest. Just because worked somewhere doesn't mean they did what they claim.makes ya wonder why he doesnt still work there. Food for thought. Hardcore may be up and coming, we need more great engine builders.and don't forget the upgrade drive and hydraulic steering if your going for speed!

You might consider Barry (Obnoxious ) building an engine for you. He's here on the boards.

Barry built my turbo motor and Gary/Rudy dynoed it. Turned out to be a great motor!

Thanks guys. Easy enough to verify that I was the first builder Gary trusted to build for him when he got too busy to build his own engines. Probably the only reason I am not still working for him is that I was also running my own unrelated business at the same time, and he needed someone in the shop during the day when customers would walk in.

that intake manifold in the picture looks like an antique. They haven't made that style for awhile.
