So I'm building a big block ford stroker motor for my 79 bronco. It will end up being a 460 based 521 stroker. Looking for a quality machine shop with a good reputation in the Holland/ Grand Rapids area. Holland automotive machine is very close but I've heard mixed reviews. And advice would be most welcome!
I have had performance engineering do work for me a few times, all on stroker 460's. I've always been very happy with the quality of work. As frdboy said above communication isn't always great, and they took a little longer than quoted the last time. Unfortunately that seems to be the norm with engine shops...
Hi Scout- PM me if you need any advise. I use Varneys in Muskegon for the bottom end machine work and machining/ballancing and Car Quest in Grand Haven for the head surfacing and any valve guide/seat work.
I see you are on the west side of the state, but it should be noted that Fenton Machine Shop in Fenton, Michigan still sucks ass, even if they are not close to you.
I agree with Tim Varney's does really good work too and in/out time has always been what I considered reasonable
Not saying Baker or Perf Eng are bad just had good luck with Varney's
