You could try Ross' Automotive at 330-544-4466. I have had engine work done there in the past with good results. They are located between Youngstown and Warren.

Thank you very much folks.

1970 Stingray: Sure, I'd be interested in their phone number. Thanks.


The plan is coming together for next winter. I have an idea of what engine I would like to build and the transmission I'd like to use, now I just need somebody to build and install it. Man I wish I had a garage.


Thanks again!!!

Yes, have used Victory Engine builders/shop on the west side of Cleveland (Lorain rd) a couple of times over the years. Good reliable work.

I haven't used them but my neighbor had two Ford 428's rebuilt there and another neighbor has a '65 Chevy 327 there now. I called them a few weeks ago and aren't real "pushy". DLK Performance....724-265-1020, Main St, Russellton PA.

I'm taking my block there in a few weeks.
