recommend a machine shop

Anybody sell a one piece rear main seal 350 with forged components on-line? I was ready to buy a ZZ4 and then realized they have a cast crank and worse hypertuetic pistons! yuck. Would need a forged crank/forged rod and leight weight forged flat top piston. Needs to be one piece rear main and roller camshaft compatable. I could have one built........but had rather buy from a reputable company.

This might fair better in a different forum. If you don't get any responses I'll move it.

Jasaper will build one too, but it will probably cost more.

Thanks maybe. There are tons of dirt car shops in my area I just don't know if they build for longevity. With AFR 210 cc heads I want close to 11:1 Compression. Still shopping..................Oh and i don't care for Jasper JMO.
