Default Engine Rebuilder in Dallas

Can anyone recommend the best, reasonable shop to do a complete rebuild on my matching numbers 350 in the North Dallas area?

Corvettes of Dallas. I have had major engine work done as well as heater core replacement....and they have come through quickly and at a very fair price.! If you call them, ask for Jeff Ames, Service Manager. They are located on I-35 north of 635.

D+P Machine Shop in Garland did mine- Dave Pluebell. Honestly, I haven't fired it up yet but he came highly recommended by forum member Tracdogg2 who has a lot of experience with Corvettes and is one of the best vendors/mechanics around. His prices were better in comparison as well.

Dave Pluebell is one of the best. Very detailed and personal service. I've had Dave doing my machine work for over 20 years. No problems ever. 972-840-2242
