skilled machine shop in NE?
hey guys! I wasn't sure where exactly to put this but.. MY LE2's need to have liners installed on all the valve guides. I'm on cape cod so real talent is pretty hard to come by, my machinists said they need new guides but llyod said its possible to sleeve them. I haven't talked to my machinists yet to see if he would be able to do that but I know he can't install new guides and I'm kinda doubting he'll be able to put liners in them. so who knows of a skilled machine shop who would be up to the task in new england(preferable MA or RI). LE said he doesn't know anyone up this way tho he said he could do it if I'd like to ship them to him & back.. he estimated ~$400 for NEW guides and I'm guessing shipping would be another $100+..
I knew they were worn when I bought these but was told they were ok to run, guess not. oh well, if I have to put $500 into them than I'd be looking at the cost of new LE2's in total minus the turn around time so I guess its not that bad. mods feel free to move this where you want! thanks in advance guys!! |
closest one I have is here in south central CT. Don or pizza might have a better idea.

Circle Performance in Brockton is DAMN! good, he got out of the SBC stuff a bit ago and found a nitch with the porches BUT will still take on small stuff like this. CAMCO in weymouth has been good to me in the past. ive heard recently that hes fallen off. wich is sad But hes a GREAT guy and does Great work IF hes the one doing it but hes been hiring ruhtards. So give Circle a call and if hes a no go then shoot over to Camco.

AD machine in worcester.
TM performance in Millbury might be able to do it P.K. Machine in Fitchburg does damn good work but its a helluva hike. I've used all 3 above with no complaints at all. I asked around a little while ago elsewhere about machine shops and got a few names to try. Bessette motor works, was told they can do pretty much anything by a fellow racer. Mid-Cape Machine does decent work, not sure if they can do guides though close to you though. |
