95556, need help from people in VA for 420a rebuild
Posted by ameclipse, Jan-05-06 07:04 AM
Just wondering if there were some people in virginia that could help me rebuild my 420a. i plan on getting je pistons and eagle rods and maybe crane cams. i would love to do this project with some help of some one that has done this before so i have the experiance myself. i am a mechanic but have never taken a motor apart.just replaced them. i dont want to send it to a shop cause ive had some bad experiances with half ass jobs and paying out the ass for it. if it would be easier to send it to a shop anyone have any ideas who and how much it will cost. i want to start this by the middle of feb. thanks for any info. anthony

I'm in West Virgina less than an hour from the VA border. Give me a call I would be happy to go over a lot of the things with you on it. I have helped a lot of guys over the years build their engines.

I am in Va Beach. I have done my motor twice, so I could be a good help, if I am close enough.
