I had Kelly's Auto on Payne Ave in St. Paul stroke,balance grind etc. my crank / rotating assembly. Had the block done (baked, bored, line bored, honed and decked) at Adelman's Engines in Blaine. Adelman's ( Tom) also shaved my ProComps and port matched the 7111. Talk to Mark here for a cam- CutlassEFI. All 3 good guys that took the time to listen and work with me to insure things were as they were supposed to be and what I wanted. I am doing the assembly myself.

I should add too that the TPIS quote was literally 100's more than what I ended up spending.

Northern cylinder head in Andover, ask for Tom. He did all my work when I was racing in Shakopee.
