If I were to build a motor Id choose between three places:

1) Buschur Racing
2) AMS
3) Jackson Auto Machine

All three have EXTENSIVE 4G63 building experience. Why choose anyone else?

^ what he said. I've also been looking into building motor as well, and i hear nothing but great things about the 3 companies. You really can't go wrong with any of them. I have actually started hearing a lot of good things with J.A.M. so they may be the company i'll go with. Go to their site, they have tons of options available.

I'd most likely end up going with Buschur unless he had some sort of long wait. His prices seem to be better than J.A.M. Both have excellent customer service as well.

That's a good set of choices for East and Midwest owners. Magnus Motorsports (Toronto) is also a good option with a long time record and great experience in building both stock and long rod configurations.

For West coast owners, make sure you add RRE (Road Race Engineering) to the list. Long time very well respected shop in SoCal.

Thanks.
Take a drive to JAM if you have the time and talk them about what you want to do with your car. A good start in your situation.
