recommended machine shop in the Seattle area???

[90gst_sean]

I need to have my 6 bolt block bored over, I'm thinking about switching to the 2G pistons.

Anyone know of a shop that has experience with the slim down of the 1G rods in the Seattle / Puget Sound area?


Any thoughts on piston selections, shops, costs... Thanks, Sean!

yeah, I would like to know also..I just pulled my longblock apart and am looking at shops. My friend told me action machine shop on aurora but he's into american cars so I'm not sure how true that is for DSM. I'm kind of of new to DSM, I'm a recovering honda addict. But I'm hoping to finish my first rebuild soon . If anyone wants to swap info, tools, cool car kill storys in Seattle, then PM me.

it's a long shot, but I bought my car from a fellow, who bought it from a fellow from Seattle who actually built the thing. It has stickers on it that say "Extreme Auto Salon, (253) 874-0073. Might be worth checking into??

i cannot recommend any of the shops that may be listed, but at least now you have some shops to choose from and see which ones are in-and-around your area.

I can't even seem to find a shop that will touch my block. None have the right torque plate
