    Trustworthy engine builders to build stroker?

    Hello everyone, I am deployed to Iraq out of Germany where I have a 99 C5 vette with a stock LS1. I was wanting to put a stroker engine in it when I get back, I will be ready to order one here in the next couple of weeks because I want it ready by the time I get there. My question is who builds qaulity strokers for a fair price. I have heard a lot of horror stories about guys buying engines that were garbage. I was looking at Texas Speed. I will probably be going for a customized turn key setup. I'm looking at 383's and 402's. Any suggestions would be very helpful. I also must have it shipped to Germany, I have talked to Texas Speed only about it and they say they did offer shipping overseas. Thanks in advance for your advice!

    theres tons of shops on the east that can build and might save a little on shipping to AE. A&A/ ECS and a few others... where in Iraq are you...Im in Baghdad VBC...

    I checked on the shipping and its only about $650 to the nearest airport in Germany, not bad. I am at FOB Caldwell, about 12 miles from the Iranian border. When did you get in Baghdad? Did you just deploy recently?

    You could also look at HKE or Virginia Speed.
