Maybe the place where we did the group dyno at the last gathering? I think it was called Tom's Performance Machine and Repair.

It might be helpful to know what you need done. We don't want to send you to a race engine shop for a water pump.

Looking into getting a camshaft swap and head work done... thinking of buying a new cam and either buying new heads or getting the ones I have ported.

I have a 1987 IROC-Z, Not sure on the engine size though, the vin says 305 but the decals, previous-owner and some parts inside the engine bay say otherwise, So I need to find the ID number on the block sometime.
Right now its mostly stock but I have alot planned (don't we all?), Currently done to it is K&N filters, CAT was removed, I have full exhaust done, except for headers, using magnaflow muffler , getting headers done in 2 weeks when i get my next paycheck, The car has Posi but not sure what the gearing is.

Gonna go check out the Crew site now.
