Does anyone know a good machine shop that has experience with flatheads in my area . pinole ca 94564 . I want to have the block and parts intake heads hot tanked and magnafluxed . any suggestions are welcome
You can try Morgan's Speed and Marine in Walnut Creek, not sure how many flatheads come through there but it's a speed shop with a full machine shop in the back. Star Machine in Emeryville might do it, but they usually shy away from older engines. Last but not least would be Gotelli's in San Bruno.
Larry, Welcome to the HAMB. What's the story on your car and what are your plans? Don't forget the pics..............
Hi I bought the car off craigslist , it had been sitting indoors for about 17 years .when I went to look at it I was surprised to see how straight and rust free it was so I took a chance I knew the engine had issues but could also see the potential. here are a few pics . once I started taking it apart it seemed like a lot had been modified for a 4 door came with an edelbrock 4barrel intake ,WCFB carb evans heads it has a .125 overbore with what seems to be low miles on it . I am going to keep it this way and hope to find out more about what it's use was seems like a sleeper . Thanks for the welcome . forgot to mention chromed steering column , window frames dashboard complete not just inserts , heater box Appleton spots .
