After calling around town here in Bakersfield and asking some friends of mine who do a lot of drag racing here I decided to take my shortblock down south to get it bored, honed, and machined. None of our local shops have worked on our motors before and most of them I've heard nothing but bad things about either. I figure I'll take the time to drive down south and have a reputable shop some of you have used on your builds to do the work for me.

Any recommendations?

Yo Mikeysgt! Any luck last year???

Im looking for a shop too! I just posted this new thread:

THREAD: Mustang Shops in Los Angeles!!!
List reputable mustang shops in L.A. here!

I am sitting in my living room starring at a set of Comp Stage 2 NSR Cams and Steeda Motion Cntrl Plates and want them installed with my heads Port and Polished by either Livernois or BBR.

I have called all these places and nobody will do it! I have pulled all these shops off of the internet and mustang forums. Help me find someone "GOOD". Sad, read the results so far:

MMR-Nobody likes them but I had to at least caLL. (Answer: We can do the work but you can't leave your car here while we are taking the 10 days to port the heads!) -LoL r they serious???

HADDAD MOTORSPORTS-(Answer: They rather work on LS1's and don't feel that it would be worth it for either party.)

GALPIN AUTO SPORTS-(Answer: They told me nobody was available to speak with right now. What???) Plus they fckd up my Maier body kit. I had to grind the rest of the old wheel wells so the damn tire had space to even move up and down! They also to this day have never installed the radio wire antenna (I paid for already) that goes inside the pillar so I could lose the stock antenna. I got smooth body work done and no more ugly antenna! But where's my antenna wire G.A.S! Losers!

West Coast Racing Cylinder Heads-(Answer: No.)

Airflowresearch.com-(Answer: No.)

HOLLYWOOD HOT RODS-As seen on that show RIDES on HD Theater-(Answer: WE don't work on anything new, only classics.) -Well excuse me! LoL

L&R Automotive-(Answer: Phone rang and rang and then a loud beep with no greeting or message! At 4 oclock in the afternoon on a weekday! huh???

WTF

Help Please :crazy:

Thank you,

Christian
