Looking for engine restoration machine shop

[Stephen R.]

I have an old 519 block that I want to have checked out and cleaned up. Does anyone know of a shop in the Philadelphia area that is familiar with doing that type of work and won't screw up the broach marks?
Thanks

Stephen;

I would contact either Jim Stuempfle or Jim Jordan out at County Corvette. they are located in West Chester PA (Westtown Road) which is not too far from Philly.. Their number is 610-695-7888. They are top notch and understand "restoration" versus "repair", meaning that your broach marks will be safe on their hands. They did the frame off work on my 1965.

Regards,

Joel

The machine shop, "Speed Equipment" in Bensalem, Pa. are very knowledgeable. They can be reached at 215 638-0300. Like any shop they should be reminded, (more than once) of the importance of broach marks and NCRS judging.
