Default east coast machine

Anyone have any opinions of them. They are on first colonial road. They seem fairly awesome and I have talked to them a few times, but i have no real feed back from anyone who has worked with them.

Can they handle good head porting? I dont want a wacko with a dremel

Do they have a flow bench? I forgot to ask while i was there.

If they do do you trust them to flow match YOUR heads?

hell id like a list of shops as well....ive been looking but only found a few

There is

East coast machine

Greggorys

Abacus

Performance Unlimited

L and W <---------------does it on the side, they are mostly industrial

Other than that I dont know any.....

I know abacus is the shit, but damn are the expensive compared to the other places i talked too.

They wanted 1800 for labor alone on a v6 rebuild.....while gregs and east coast wanted much less for the entire build including parts.

Anyway if anyone has more suggetions i want to call around and see where i can get the best price for what i want....

You know the axiom Cheap, Fast, Reliable, pick two.

I want Cheap and Reliable i dont care if it takes 3 months to do hehe.
