Thanks for posting this B. This is a must for the LS want-a-be.

yeah, LS, LT, but they also do other engines EFI and non-EFI. They're also not exclusive to GM, though they lean that way. Cool facility-lots of in-house manufacturing.

I'm out. Got a free day and committed to another thing. Should be a good time though.

I'll still definitely be there. This is where we did my engine, and I've got a Buick Straight 8 in there now. We're also doing my pal Scott's 498ci LS here. Shooting for 800 N/A! wooo hooo!!

I was there in the afternoon, got there around 1:00 and left around 2:30

could have been there earlier, but ran into the Renaissance traffic on 169 and road construction on 13... managed to get a little lost too because google maps calls that road "County Rd 10" which it most definitely is not. angry I just wrote down the directions, and didn't write the address, so I wandered aimlessly in and out of Chaska for a bit. Saw a guy in a gray '67 Chevelle convertible, so I asked him where it was... he didn't know, but he had a smartphone and looked it up. nana

Sorry we missed ya pal. We got there at 10 and missed the traffic. Last weekend for Ren Fest and weather was great, so we knew it'd be bad traffic. Also enjoyed seeing Stan and Kevin and they got the nickel tour of both Scott's garages in BP. Good time! Wish we'd have waited for you now...

Sorry we missed you Derek. 

Thanks to the Scott's for the cool 2 lane drive and the garage tours.  That '76 Malibu wagon is going to be SICK!  Hope he makes it for Car Craft 2013!  thumbsup

That was one heck of a backup, on our way home the south bound lanes where backed up bumper to bumper for at least six miles. It was interesting to see what they are capable of doing there and I learned they can do a lot.

The garage tour was impressive, this Scott and Scott wagon project is going to be                       ,well the words are not coming to me but it’s going to be one of those hold on tight deals.  I’ll buy a ticket for a ride in it.
