Looking for engine builders in California
 

I have a relative in Central California who's looking for a reliable and reasonable engine builder to freshen a SBC sprint car motor. Preferebly nothing farther south than Orange County or north of Monterey County. FYI Shaver is out of the question.....too high $$$. Any suggestions?

I've heard of 90% of them, and like the idiot I am, I even have a mutual friend who uses Lambeck....why I couldn't think of that on my own...must be my age passing my memory LOL.

Sincere thanks for the replies.
