Default 951 2.8 with TEC3 build/install

I am in the middle of a 2.8 build with my 951. I need to find a shop that can reliably assemble the motor, which is already sleeved, all parts basically intact, and install it in the car including a Tec3 setup. I am stranded at my current shop who basically just won't get the job done (2 years and counting). Too many custom parts to list, including intercooler, header, head, exhaust, turbos, injectors, etc., etc.

I am in LA, CA but would ship the car. Names I am considering include Miledge, Lindsey, Vision - any others? Who has experience with a shop who has actually completed a project like this, tuned the car reliably and stands by their work?

Please let me know about any expereinces with these shops good or bad, or others. Thanks!

Hmmm, that does sound like it is right up my alley – especially the Tec3 part. If you weren’t on the left coast it would make a lot of sense.
It still may even with the shipping costs involved.

Feel free to drop me a line – whitechristopher@earthlink.net

PS – I am just fining some mods/refresh work on my tec3 powered 2.75l engine – bound for VIR in a week.
