Default Who is go to guy/place for LT5 engine work in Alabama/TN/GA now?

Thinking of buying a modded ( mine have always been completely stock) 95 ZR-1. I am in Alabama and my go to place was Aaron at South Georgia Corvettes, he has long since been out of business. Also, with the passing of Auto Masters in Bowling Green, who would do my engine work? I can do everything else on my own. Having a place with real LT5 knowledge and tuning/repair is a big factor in buying this car. I am in Huntsville, AL area. Thanks!

Here’s the list as we know it. Last I heard from several sources is that SGC is back. Might be worth a call. There is a new phone number (at least I think it’s new) listed.

Looks like we need to add Corvette Performance Center to the list. Do you they have a website and email?

I hesitate to post this, but, who knows, it might help someone.

Back in 2015 I heard (first hand) someone had a bad experience with SGC, and then second hand, another.

The stories were bad enough to make me decide to never consider them.

Maybe things have changed. That would be good.
