Default Good New York Engine Builder???????

I alreaady did a search so don't suggest that, thanks.

Does anybody know a good engine builder in the NY, NJ, CT area? I really don't have the time to do it myself and I need to have some work done. Please let me know. Thanks.

Dan Geezer can probably help you or a local shop near me in Yonkers API tuning. They have a dyno on site also...

Contact Boosted Hybrid. He's located in PA about an hour outside of NYC.

IT is mostly an issue of burning excessive amounts of oil most likely due to the ring end gaps being to large. I can do the work myself I just don't have the time.

Justin,
Goto our yahoo group and contact Dan. He is the "designated" R-speed engine builder and he is good.

If you rebuild it again, you'll be looking at overboring again since it's already bored .010".

You'll either have to use the Topline .020" OEM Honda CTR or ITR replicas if you want to stay with a cast piston, or go back to using a forged piston in .020" over.

I thought you said the ring end gaps were on the loose side of the specified tolerance and not over.
