Machine shop in Connecticut
Looking for a reputable machine shop in Ct..I'm redoing my engine now and the shop I'm using is not impressing me.I need to get some heads decked to build compression and he doesn't seem enthused to do the work.Telling me I'd be going in circles and that gaskets will no longer line up,so.....
I would like to find a new shop,hopefully somebody into Pontiacs. If ya know of one,let me know.I'm in New Britain but will travel for good work. Thanks

I used Carlquist Compitition Engines. He built my engine a few years back. He is very meticulous for sure! The shop is in Oakville. Not cheap but then again you get what you pay for!

Another good machine shop that I have used before is Sandtrom Machine in Bristol. Tom is very knowledgeable and knows Pontiac engines. He always told me straight up my options and never told me it was race season and I have to wait.

Liefert machine in torrington ct
860 482 4533 960 hp turbo engine with 2 bolt mains cast crank that's been bullet proof. What more could you ask for from a machinist. Not to mention Paul Newman brought all his stuff there. Does a lot of GT1 road race engines that spin big rpm and live long lives.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
