Default some one your comfortable with

I think its important to say that you have to be able to talk too the person your going to have build your engine. I can say from pasdt experince there are a lot of crooks out there. And a lot of these engine buliders like to wow you . Make you feel as you dfont know anything be carefull.

I should also add that I live less than 10 minutes from Danbury Competition Engines so it is convenient to have someone who built my engine virtually around the corner...in fact I pass his place every day on the way to work.

I do not want to hi-jack this so I'll be quick.

Cobraman 484,

I grew up in Lynn and get to the Northshore area about 3 times a year. Like to stop by when I get there.

BTW what color is your car? I ask as last year I saw a blue/white on Walnut street. Looked like an ERA but could have been a Midstates.

Mike

My tag is ACK427. Just like my handle.
We have been on Nantucket about 13 years.
Because I started the thread I guess I can tell you that without getting in trouble.
I am looking for someone with experience in FE motors and Superformance Maintainence.

Thumbs up Southern Automotive

I had Southern Automotive build be a stroker 427 motor in my first Cobra, and it was a "monster" and extremely reliable...Bill Parham builds a great motor and stands behind everything he builds.
I am taking delivery of my new Kirkham next month and I will be going back to Bill to build me another motor , possibly and aluminum block stroker...

I live in Utah, but in todays business world it does not matter if you are 30 miles or 3000 miles away....
