Really getting tired of paying the money to get crap in return with very little recourse. Having issues on a recent build and need to have the engine looked at, what I`m dealing with is one bank does not match the other for `0`deck, good oil pressure but the lifters are not seeing it, oil leaks, and who knows what else. I`m in Yellowknife NWT and was going to deal with Ron Parr in BC, but am looking for a central or northern Alberta builder who just doesn`t slap sbc`s together but is reasonable on their rates and above all stands behind their work. Depending on fixes, I may just go to 383. Why I`m sending this out rather than bring a short block in is all the machine work done already- line honed, studs bottom and top, oe rolller cam, etc. Self alligning rockers were also assembled with guide plates which took out the guides in short order- this is the assmbly quality I`m dealing with. The napa guy here deals with ATK- but I`m not getting a good feeling with these guys.

Thanks

 

I got these guys to put my bottom end together but they could also do a complete engine from stock to full race.

I got my engine balanced here even though Precise could have also have done it.

If you don't mind going to Regina, Saskatchewan, contact Bruce at ABS Competition Ent, he has a few NHRA national record holder motors, he has done all my race motor for years. If you are interested to talk to him just PM me for his number

 

Kind of curious why outsource balancing?

 

572- RAT, I'm considering further afield- my logic is lower shop rates compared to Alberta may offset the shipping. I was reading about Redline in Manitoba- why not use them?

 

I outsourced my balancing because I like the more precision work he does compared to others.

 

Don't know anything about them, I have Known Bruce for 30 years, and know that he does not rip anyone off, and does fantastic work for a great price.

 

Napa does offer our HP line. All our engines are hand built here in Dallas, TX (not assembly line built). Many members on this forum and others have used our engines with great success if you do a search. Our engine builder are true builders as well, not just a mechanic. We have guys from Reher & Morisson, Patu Musi, TRE and guys who have owned machine shops for 30+ years.

Feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

Brandon.

 

Thanks for the replies- will be dealing with D&W engines in Calgary.

 

How about a good tuner (TPI) DynamicEFI in the northern half of the province?
