Default Reputable Shop in MA

I'm in the Boston area and looking for a local shop to work on my ERA. The 428 is due for a valve lash adjustment and a tune-up, and I'd like to have someone who really knows FE engines take care of it. Any suggestions?

Cobra Automotive, Wallingford CT
http://cobraautomotive.com
Cobra Automotive is the number one motor group in the NE.
When it comes to motors they are #1, why settle?
They service the real deal and have top notch motor shop. From Danvers short 2hr ride for you.
You will see real cars there as well, hands down #1.

CA is building my next 289 motor. Simply the best!

I am only a few miles away from you. Back in the day a lot of good FE guys were around here. I'll see if I can find any of my old buddy's if ya want. Running the valves isn't hard.

I agree with Nantucket427 completely!

The person to go to is Nick at Acton Enterprises .

Honest and he knows what he is doing.

I trust my ERA 289 Slabside to him.

Awesome. I recognized the Cammer, but the other looks wild. I'd love to hear it run!
