Butler Performance is a days drive away, Paul Spotts is in PA and Nightmare Perforance is in CT. I just names a few Pontiac Engine builders I would use and 64speed has a guy he trusts too. I would be dying to drive that GTO by now and burning up the streets in VA .
On a positive note, there's a lot of great advice on this thread. I am hoping for the best for you!

I agree. You have been beating your head against a wall for how long now? My engine builder fields two cars for the Southeast Gassers Association and most times they are winners. He has built two 421s for my friend that were absolute screamers and he built Caster1 461 that is amazing. Its torn up a transmission already and is working on tearing up a rearend. Wayne will NOT let you leave without a warranty and you attesting to the fact that it is good to go. With Wayne you will have to deal with him in person which is a drive but if you get it from him you will get to see and hear it run on his stand and when you get it back home and you install it in your car if it knocks then well then you got a problem somewhere else. Wayne is reasonable too. He did all my assembly work and machining for 1600 bucks and thats including ordering custom pushrods and providing all gaskets except head gaskets and all the little trinket bolts etc that everyone forgets.
