Thanks Glen, but I've used AIMS inc. (Automotive Industrial Machine
Service) here in Reno for a long time.  Their the ones the local machine
shops have do all their heavy work and look at A-blocks as fun.
                Crash


For the Northern California (and Crash), Del's Automotive Machine shop
in
Sacramento does good work, knows A-series motors well, and did my turbo
bugeye block and head work a few years ago and it hasn't had any problem
since that last rebuild.  Fixed a crack in the head, put in hardened
seats,
changed valve guides, ground the new valves, decked the block and
skimmed
the head, checked the crank and rods as well as putting the new pistons
onto
the old rods.
Good work, reasonably priced.  I don't know the guy, haven't been back
since, and have absolutely no interest in his business.  But next time I
need work I'll be back.

Glen
