Looking to have my 427 SBC short block checked out. I am pulling engine to replace some components and thought while I have it out may as well have the short block looked at.

Can't do any better than Garry Grimes in Alpharetta, GA. He rebuilt my 427 big block a number of years ago. It runs real strong. He has an excellent reputation and may be the best engine builder in the Southeast. 770-475-5272. He's on Tidwell Rd. in Alpharetta.

I'll second Garry Grimes. He's done work for me when I built a 454 for drag racing and he did the machine work on my dad's original 302 Z/28 motor.

Great guy.

Now that you mention it I recall his name being mentioned in the past.

I will look him up.

Like most things car related you can pick any 2 of the 3:

1. good
2. cheap
3. fast

Garry is not cheap. But he is VERY good.

Yes, I thought I would contact him tomorrow and see what he thinks.
