Default Maryland Clutch Balance

Anyone know of a shop in Maryland (Rockville area) for clutch match balancing?

Thanks

Rob

Call Rick Kim at http://www.rktperformance.com. I won't let any other mechanic work on my car. A little farther than Rockville but worth the trip.

Does Rick do more than transmissions these days? I'd love to find somebody in the Frederick area for other high performance work...

I'll give him a call. If he doesn't do the balancing, he probably knows how does.

Thanks!

Rick basically does it all. He did all my fluids, installed the LMC5, my RadioFlyer Bi-xenon Radioflyer ACA Projector Headlights ,replaced my AC air temp sensor that had failed.
This is just kid stuff for Rick, His expertise is second to none in all phases of Corvette motors. A look at his website says it all.

Gave him a call. Unfortunately he doesn't do the clutch balance (doesn't have the equipment). I called his suggestion and didn't like their answers. Even as I explained how it needed to be done, they said how the would do it (which wasn't correct).

I guess the search continues.

Thanks for the update. Too bad Rick does not have the equipment. I am sure he would have done a great job.
Here is a link that might be of help:
