Well I got a Sohc ZC motor that I replaced the head gasket with a MLS one. Unfortunately, one of the corners is wet with oil so I'm pretty sure the sealing surface wasn't good enough. I had scraped off the old one carefully hoping the mating surfaces were good.

Anyway, I'm going to take everything apart and have the surfaces machined, the cylinders honed, and the valves reground. What's the best machine shop in the Atlanta area to do all this? I want everything done correctly and to specs (I know...I should have done all this while the motor was apart the first time).

I hope this is the right forum to post this...I didn't know where else to put it.

 

bump...

 

I know these guys through my new Camaro, maybe ask them..?

MTI, Grimes, Sunbelt (not sure if they are open to the public) all good shops

 

Try Atlanta Crankshaft Exchange

 

Grimes Automotive had a good review from a Corvette forum saying the guy was very meticulous...which I like. I'm in Northeast AL where most of the automotive guys are hacks so finding a quality shop is important.

Keep up the suggestions if anyone else has them. Thanks.

 

Another good one is Dover Cylinder Head near the Atlanta Airport.

 

yea, we take all of our heads/motors there from the shop to get cleaned and repaired and what not
