LMR Packages?
Hey guys, because I'm at altitude I'm thinking of getting some after market work done. I've seen Late Model Racecraft do really well with streetspeed's ZR1 build and am considering having them build my car.
Their website is still under maintenance it looks like. Have any of you had them build your car and what type of packages do they offer? |

Try calling or emailing them. Calling is better.

You mean the one in Houston right? I ask because you are in Indiana and I want to be sure. If so, I did business with them with my 5th Gen Camaro. It has been years since then, but they were quite a mess honestly. I would not have let them do anything major on my car, they just installed headers for me in that instance.
They may have changed since then and improved, but based on my own experience I will be going a different direction with my next build.

The process was a bit of a mess is all. They were unorganized, unprepared and I had an appointment at a time that they seemed to not be very busy. Not confidence inducing. It was not a bad experience in the scheme of things, but when I get major work done I look for clean organized shops, run by organized people that are prepared and ready for each build. I just didn't get that feeling from LMR, but again this was about 5 years ago when I had my '13 1LE. Things do change, and I hope LMR has or maybe even I caught them on a bad day. J-Rod's Speed Shop would be my first choice in Houston, he did my cam build and was amazing. After that I think I would consider Vengeance in Louisiana due to proximity to Houston and their stellar reputation. Lots of good choices I think.

There's quite a few good shops if you've been around for a while. In no particular order, and I've only used Ted Jannetty fyi...

Went into LMR to schedule for a tune. They took all my info down but I never heard from anyone just like most tuners in Houston. Looking at Prospeed now since they are the only people around here that will actually communicate with me and were recommended by Late Model Engines.
