Anyone have any experience with Marshall rebuilders in Skowhegan ME?

I can't make a recommendation since I live far away and don't know them, but I can make some suggestion. If you have more than one machine shop to consider, look how clean each is, how organized they are and the age of machinery. Ask about what type of rebuilds do they specialize in, what is their work load and ask for a tour. And last, if what you want isn't in writing you may not get it, parts and labor. Dennis

I don't have direct experience with Marshall re-builders and there are limited options in Maine. I just received my engine a few weeks ago from DC Racing engines in Houlton Maine. Dean has a very clean shop and is very meticulous. He did a complete rebuild and put it on the Dyno. Very satisfied.
