Machine shop in MA
My guy in Wareham recently retired, and the one guy on the Cape I wouldn't use for a bicycle. I am on Cape Cod, and we have to drive everywhere to get anything, so that's not a problem. I need my ZL1 finished, and intend to run it. Haven't heard good things about Reids, but don't know how true it is. Who uses who?

Reid's did my L78 for my pace car last year. They did a good job, although I was hoping for better HP/Torque numbers. I had previously used Boucher's out in Rowley, MA about 20 years ago for my L34 Chevelle and engine was amazing! I would have used him again, but he had a year wait! Good luck! There is also a place maybe in Medford, MA?

I've used PK Machine in Fitchburg MA for over 30 Years. I've had Paul ( PK ) build some stock looking Big Block and Small Blocks over the years that made well over advertised Hp. PK stands behind his work 100%.

Thanks for all the recommendations people. I would have responded sooner, but a death in the family has kept me busy. I intend to run this engine. Not real hard, mind you, but still want the best work I can get. Thanks again.
