It is a tough question, but it really depends on what you want for yourself. Will you be happy with an SS and 426HP? Or do you want a supercharged car with 500+ HP? It all depends if this is going to be a weekend warrior or stop and go daily driver. You will probably get as many different opinions on this site as there are members. The members that suggested take your time and study all of your options are correct. Before you spend 60K on a car, make an educated decision. Study all of the options and what the different tuners have to offer.
For myself,I have opted to wait for the Z/28 but it is more to fulfill personal quests than to pick one car or tuner over another. But waiting for a Z/28 is not for the faint of heart and the impatient. I am still not expecting the Z/28 to arrive before Dec. 2011 and have no confirmed idea of what the car will actually be like.
If I had to pick a tuner car my choices would be:
1. - SLP = Good reputation, great looks with hood and spoiler, I am not crazy about the wheels though.
2. - Ligenfelter - Solid car with a great reputation, excellent build history.
3. - Hennessey - Almost as good as Ligenfelter
Good luck with your decision, I wish I had your problem.
