he subs out to all to machine shops, and makes an end, nothing realy wrong with that cept you never get to deal with the actualy guy doing the work or ask the questions that sometimes come up with special stuff, their are other guys in the area that are real good with hands on shops but the better ones are pricy jz

If you are looking for quality machine work to be done, try Bill Ceralli in Paterson. They built my 396.

I had machine work done on my 350 that was in my old camaro at a place in Manville. south side auto I think. real nice guy, been in business since the 60's so you know he's got a good rep. probably too far of a drive for ya though. Plus his race motors take up a lot of his time. luckily for me, when I went he was waiting on a crank to come in for the motor he was building, so my motor got done in a few days 8)

Yeah thanks, I'm willing to drive for good work, He also said he tunes lt1 motors, I've dealt with the guy before, Not a very nice guy, I like nice people...I dont expect much, but dont talk to me like i'm an ******* you know? I'm not stupid, so I didn't go back for a while, but I saw the dynosaur sittin outside, with that ****** muskrat sittin on it, figured I'd put it to good use...

couldnt even sell me the correct $3 gasket for my rear. Another time they tried selling me that DTS 12 bolt they have had sitting there for months. Said it would handle between 800-1000 wheel hp. BS! I called DTS to ask and it was no where near that even for the top optioned rear. All he is good for is gettin parts in a pinch fluids,clamps, etc.. I work right down from the street there and the same damn cars are always there. Wanna hear a great quote? " I am like God tuning the LS1."
