Looking for a engine builder for my 63. I want someone trustworthy but more importantly im looking for recommends from people that had work done from them.
I need someone to build my 327.
Thanks. Near Los Angeles

Steve LuVisi of Automotive Expertise in Huntington Beach. He knows the value of your numbers. Many on this forum won't go to anyone else.

TIJUANA AUTO REPAIR in San Fernando will not only rebuild the motor but will stamp any number you want on it.

I forth THE VOTE for Steve. Jeff Reade in Culver City is very good also. 310-397-3800.

Both have been building Corvette engines for many years.
