I am very happy with mine. Don't know how it will all go with dual fuel though. the mixers kill the top end.
A 2500rpm stallie probably a better bet with a dev3hl cam too. Also think of going 3.7 I went 3.23 to 3.45 and i probably should have been braver and gone 3.7. if I was a young hoon still not an old one like i am I would go 3.9 even. |

yes but auto masters have managed to dig me up a bigger gas mixer and faster computer for gas
 and as for 3.7diff gears thats prolly just going to break the budget :( but if i got the money id prolly got 3.7 depends on wat it would do to Speed and Rev limiters. altho want speed limiter removedcoz 180 is silly. |

Dont forget to look at all your options, plenty of OHC 4.0L tuning houses getting great results these days.

had to read that twice! G&D must be a alright mob to have you as a endorsing customer!

Old Mate
Like any workshop in the industry, if they have runs on the board and support its customers and our members, that's the best recommendation

Lets just hope they dont ИИИИ anyone around here off then!
AUFairmont - No doubt everyone will recommend one place or another. My advice is take everyone opinions into account, but then call and talk to each place. G&D sounds like they know what they are doing, JMM has a good record of getting results, or you can give it a go yourself with the help of wade/crow/surecam. The setup you describe sounds ok, I personally wouldnt go the stall though. Im yet to see any good results out of stally's in mild 6's and from what I have heard the dev3hl makes power early anyway.

There is a lot more to it than your 1st line Stockstandard.
I am extremely dissapointed to see a liner like that, if thats the way you think the Admin team run the site then maybe its not the right forums for you.

umm, ok then...
Im not referring to the admin team in this case (or JMM, i have no idea what is going on there). I just noticed a number of threads where companies (including g&d) have been flamed on the forums for rather trivial reasons. Just saying that you never know the whole story, so take everything and make your own mind up. I personally wouldnt go to JMM (and I haven’t made any secret of it in the past), but considering the number of JMM I6's running sub 14.5 vs the number produced by other manufacturers its worth your while to at least talking to them.
