Default Re: Big block engines (Darren)

I spoke with David at Cresco Motorsports about rebuilding my 427 numbers matching engine and he sounded very knowlegable in regards to chevy engines. Also his prices quoted to do the job seemed very low. I finally
decided to go with a local machine shop that already has a good relationship
with my mechanic. Shipping my engine to Cresco and back was going to be around 400$
