Neals is in fact, posted on my refrigerator. I'll probably have them do my next one. I have taken a few to Standard Motor Parts in Nashville, and they do a good job. Maybe somebody can get you closer in to Clarksville.

good work is always worth driving for, I've found that out the hard way many times. besides it's only 150 miles round trip. if i can make that for a mustang meet, it shouldn't be a problem for him to drive down there and back for quality work. :^drunk^:

The best shop around is by far Richmonds machine shop. They did the work to my shortblock and a few other cars that I built for friends that all made over 500rwhp. They are on franklin street. Just about every dirt track car in town has their engine work done there. They are also who does all of the ford dealerships work for them.

If all you need is bored .020 over it will cost you $90

i called Richmond's in clarksville...the modular engine is much different than their pushrod counterparts when it comes to boring them. in the end it will cost $180. Thanks for all the help everyone, ill be going to richmond's to get this done. i cant wait to be back home with the club (afghanistan sucks)
