I would vote for Gordon at Autometrics. Honesty and integrity is part of their "standard package"

Not only they will do an amazing job, but they will also stand behind it and take ownership of any possible issues, even though is not related to the rebuild. They want you to be happy and go fast, and it shows quite clearly by the way they do business.

You will not regret it...

You should also talk to Mike Bavaro at Body Motion. They build a lot of motors for pro teams and club racers. Mike's a great guy and honest. 732-493-2700

Why are you considering a rebuild with only 70 hours?

Porsche Motorsports was having a sale on engine rebuilds. Not sure if it's still on but I think they were talking about $20k.

How can you guys tell how many hours your engine has done?

Is it on the motec Dash or do you keep your own log?
