    Noribilt

    I'm building my first car since moving from Louisiana, where I knew where to get anything done. Getting ready to get my LX mini tubbed and caged. Got sent to Noribilt, I talked to Mike and he seemed like a nice enough guy.

    Thoughts on this shop? or anywhere else I should look?

    Also looking for a transmission guy to change the tail shaft in a C-6. I don't need it rebuilt just swap the tail shaft. any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Mike @ Noribuilt is a great guy & he seems really know his shit, from what I have seen. I know he comes pretty highly recommended for chasis work & turbo stuff.

    The C-6 stuff kinda depends on what side of town are you on?

    If I was getting a cage, Mike is the only person I'd have do it. His welding is incredible.

    cool, just need the tail shaft swapped out of a C-6. wish i needed a rebuild, since it's gotta come apart anyway.

    Hands down Noribilt is the place to go for chassis and turbo work. You get what you pay for.

    You still can't go wrong with Noribilt. I don't think anybody else is going to be really cheaper than another. Unless they are doing the work out of their garage off their home.

    You should go by LRC and check them out. Agree that norbilt is hard to pass up but LRC is a very good option. Go by their shop and talk to them. They are really good peeps.
