We moved into our new 24,600 sq. ft. facility in December 2011, and we are very proud of what we have to offer our customers! The overwhelming majority of our customers will never be able to visit our facility, so we would like to provide everyone with a virtual tour. Our new, state-of-the-art facility houses our cylinder head and engine machine shop, sales area and showroom, installation facility, parts warehouse, shipping/receiving department, engine dyno, and chassis dyno. We sell our products to customers throughout the United States and all over the world, and we want our customers to see where their work is performed and where their parts come from! You will be hard-pressed to find a nicer facility that offers all of our services under one roof! We feel that every business should be willing to give past, current, and future customers a shop tour, even if it is virtual for those not local! You will need to click on the link to see all 27 photos. I did not want to post all of them up due to the file size, but I have included just a few. Please check out the complete album at the link below!

I just installed a TSP 228r cam and TSP long tubes/X-pipe in my 02' Z06 to get it ready for a little fun at RTTS! Customer service was the best i've experienced for a while anywhere and everything I wanted was in stock! I'll be calling soon to get some gaskets and LS2 timing chain to swap my old LS6 cam into my friends LS1.

I recently had the opportunity to help a friend upgrade his 2004 Corvette. I put together a fairly extensive shopping cart on Texas Speed's web site, and his Grandmother ponied up the credit card :dunno: A few days later, the following parts started showing up:
PRC 215 cathedral port CNC heads; Torquer V3 cam; 7.500" pushrods; Yella Terra 1.7:1 rocker arms; TSP long tube C5 headers; TSP 3" x-pipe; Magnaflow C5 cat-back; Powerbond 25% underdrive balancer; SVO "redtop" 30#/hr injectors; GMPP red plug wires; delux gasket kit; and a Yank 3,000 rpm stall (bought used from a local friend).

Texas Speed took the initiative to change my request for 7.400" (stock length) pushrods to 7.500" since they already knew that would work with the PRC heads Y/T rockers, and the cam we selected. That alone saved me time and money on a second order. The only part of the order that didn't work was the O2 sensor extensions - C5s have both flat and square plugs, and this 2004 had the square plugs. I bought some aftermarket O2 sensors with slightly longer leads and they worked just fine with the headers. After all the parts were installed and I worked out a street tune, that car was a blast to idle through a parking lot and even better when you mat it on an on-ramp...

I have always been very happy with the customer service at Texas Speed, and their web site makes it easy to put together a nice shopping list. Maybe I'll get a chance to stop by your facility one day. Thanks again.
