Engine Builder / Tuner near Nashville?

Hey guys, I have read through a ton of these posts and it looks like my ZL1 can pretty easily be upgraded to some pretty sizeable HP gains. My problem is time, I don't have any...are there any shops near the Nashville area that does these same type of LSA engine upgrades? I can't see me going to Utah or Connecticut to get this done...and I'm not comfortable installing these type parts on the car myself.

I did get a nice quote from PCM in North Carolina, just looking to see if there might be any others...

Any help would be appreciated...

What are you wanting to add. I'm in Hendersonville. I could help you if you want to DIY. Or Jerry Onyx at the Performance Garage in Smyrna does plenty of LS powered cars.

Ok, Thanks for the info. I was looking at doing headers, injectors, cam, valves / springs, pulley, etc. I guess what some would call the "normal" upgrades to get into the 600-650RWHP range, higher if my wallet can stand it...

ZL1 Danny,
I'm not sure how far you are willing to go. We are about 8 hours away from you. We get cars in from all over the US. Give us a call or email and we can get a quote over to you. We would like to make that ZL1 a little faster for you.
