Who in the CT area can rebuild my small block L-82.That means taking it out, rebuilding it and do a turn key. Any help appreciated.

You might want to check out the Corvette Center in Newington. I would certainly look at more than one place and see who gives you a happy feeling.

Corvette connection does not rebuild motors but they are the best around . My family and I have done business with Dana for 25 years. You should talk to him anyway.

I have had 2 engines built by Carlquist Competition engines in Oakville. Bill is a great guy to deal with and has a great reputation. You would have to bring the engine to him I am sure though. Give him a call.
