Engine builders in Charlotte, NC

[RandyP63]

I was hoping someone might be able to help me find a reputable engine rebuilder here in Charlotte. I already had the heads redone, now the bottom end. Thanks.

Are you referring to a machine shop to "do the block"- 30/40 over, etc....?

Are you planning on putting everything back together after the machine work or do you need someone to reassemble?

If you do not have any luck finding one in the Charlotte area, the guys I have used for several years are approx two hours away from you in Hendersonville, NC area. Let me know if I can help.

Thanks, I meant machine shop. I haven't had much luck locally, believe it or not a guy in Ohio did the heads, he was pretty cheap and did great work. I travel up there a lot for work, So a 2 hour drive would be easy.

check with NIX TRIX they are in Lake Norman. They should be able to point you in the right direction.

This guy has built several 302s for me. Good work.

That's the problem, everyone says "I'm at the races soon". Thanks for the recommendations.

We used Doug Herbert in Concord to do work on our block.

Was his price reasonable?

You might check with Red Barron race parts in Hickory. He does not do that stuff, but the guy knows everybody, he is right across from the raceway.

Keith Newcomer in Concord builds a good motor. Proteats in kannapolis builds them inexpesively. They use your for a core and give you one they remanufacture. Just depends on which way you want to go. Modded to your liking or factory replacement
