Thank you
I hope you have a great day☺
To Saudi Arabia
But here 80% of the parts is high prices I've checked
And also I need a lot
So It's need to be Reasonable
And lower than reason is better
Because I also need more parts
Like the brakes , Centre bearing and tailshaft coupling,
And more
I also know some companies that ships to me almost free
But if you have low in Saudi Arabia that will be great for me

Best bet is to email a shop in the states and give them your order and see if they are willing to ship to KSA. With the amount of product you're looking for perhaps they'd trim some of their margin to make the sale and accommodate the shipping request. Did a quick search on another LS1 board on I'm, looks a member there from your neck of the woods bought from Tick Performance out of North Carolina. Maybe Texas Speed too. I would definitely search for feedback on whatever shop you choose BEFORE you make the purchase.

Don't have any suggestions for specs or whatnot, as my car is near stock. Good luck on your build.
