    I keep hearing good reviews on Goza Machine shop in Acworth. Might be far from ya but they helped get my Brother in law's 930 motor together...650+whp.

    I'll second that. They've been a great help to several members within the community.

    Oh, most machine shops don't deal with engines that aren't torn down. They prefer to get them in short or long block form with all accesories removed.

    If you need it torn down or checked I suggest you bring it to Topspeed

    I'm sure he can get them off. Ball Engines has a set of factory cam gear tools as well as a set of the Cobb tools.

    We also have them at TopSpeed.
