Machine Shops in NYC

[FLG]

Hey guys,

Want to start working on the new engine but i want to get it cleaned up and checked out before doing anything to make sure that it will be a good block to work with. Is there any shops in the NYC area?? Would like a reputable place to do it, but i dont want to over pay just because of a name.

Thanks,

Frank

We took our 440 to BBC over in Linden NJ about 20mins from the tunnels and right off of Rts 1&9. 

Full machine shop and very fair prices on the machine work... Ask for Mike (the owner) tell him that Dimetrius referred you

Thanks!

Any rough ideas on the price to just have a block cleaned up and checked out?

If you don't mind crossing the Hudson River there is a machine shop in Emerson, NJ that's done 2 engines, a 4 speed, & an 8-3/4" rear for me. He did 2 other Chebby engines for friends that I sent there, one was a 283 & one was a 396. Very reasonable & the owner is one of the people who does the work himself.

The owner's name is Rich, the shop is called North Jersey Performance & Machine Inc.

12 Bland St
Emerson, NJ 07630

2) Crank Clean, grind and magnaflux - $175.00
3) Heads Clean, boil and valve job - $350.00 (this price may increase depending on the condition of valves and springs)
