Third Gen shop in Houston TX
 

Looking for a shop with Third Gen knowledge and experience in Houston.

I can do most work myself, but need to have SFCs welded in, and also will need an alignment after Spohn-ing my suspension.

Please advise.

I think any of the 4th gen fbody shops should do weld in subframe connectors since they are not unlike the 4th gen cars.

ANy suggestions for 4th gen shops in Houston?

G-force motorsports in pearland. They seem to offer good prices. Late model racecraft is pricey but do quality work..their track record of cars proves it. They are in the northwestern side off highway 290. Horsepower engineering I think is up that way as well.

ARD in NW Houston.

That is THE BIGGEST CRAP job I have ever seen! I can't believe it ran at all! Looks like an ad for crimp-on connectors.
:huh: :doh:

Definitely avoid ARD. I had them do my subframe connectors years ago. After having learned to weld my self and doing it for some time I looked under my car one day for something else. When I looked at the welds they did I couldn't believe how bad they were. Even in welding school I never saw anything this bad.

Also, I had to make an appointment with them to do it. The first time I called after making the appointment to tell them I was on the way, they told me not to come because they had to many cars in their shop. So I scheduled it for the next Saturday. This time I drove out there from League City (about an hour drive) only for them to tell me the same thing. The shop is full. I told them how far I came and they decided to move some of the cars to make room. They gave me a good deal, and now I know why.
