Shops near central WV?
Hello,
I am looking for a shop to install an ATI balancer with 10% on my ZL1. Does anyone know of any shops close that are pretty good? There is a shop in PA, just outside of Morgantown that I go to for the dyno, but they are primarily a Mustang shop. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Travis |

One of the best guys in the country is located in eastern Kentucky. He is literally on the KY/WV border, on US 23, about 9 miles south of I-64. His name is Phillip Smith, but he calls himself BlueCat. You can google him, but you won't find anything negative. He's just the opposite of the place that you mentioned in PA. He's a LS expert and he doesn't touch anything that's not GM. He's also very familiar with that LSA engine. The last time I was there he was dynoing a bolt-on ZL1 auto and I think it made about 650hp at the wheels. All the fastest GM street/strip cars in the Ashland, KY/Huntington, WV area have "Tuned by BlueCat" stickers on them. The only problem with him is that he stays so busy, it's hard to get him to answer the phone and he never answers phone calls from numbers that he doesn't know. You have to go there the first time and get him to put your number in his phone. Then he will answer, if he's not too busy. I can PM you directions and his Cell#, but like I said don't be surprised if he doesn't answer. Here's some YouTube videos of some of BlueCat's dyno pulls. The first one is an 08 Vette that made 968 RWHP. He's reasonable too, he wont gouge you. He spent an entire day on my car and only charged me $300. That was a 18 months ago and my car pulls like a bear and hasn't missed a beat since. https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=T8963VRRBrk https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=Ldxn4CpMR1M https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=5cdBvMH2bGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=icOwkg16AjA https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=KWnXr9uoJ1Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=Yrv5B1wIh1w

I have heard of him. One of my friends got his ws6 tuned there. I am in tucker county, wv...close to Canaan valley ski resorts. Right now I just want to get the ATI damper/10% pulley installed. I can contact him when I am ready for a dyno tune though.
If you could pm me the info that would be great. |
