Albany NY area machine shops
Anyone have any suggestions for machines shops I can trust boring and doing basic head work on a 68 400? Willing to travel a bit so figure within 100 miles of the Albany/Saratoga NY region.
Looking for a clean, professional, timely shop, not someone's shop out back, or someone that does it as a hobby. Thanks, JohnnyB |

Mike Felt in Hudson Falls has built a bunch of Pontiac motors. He does have a torque plate which most shops don't. He also has an engine run stand to make sure the motor is ready to bolt in. His number is 518-441-9208

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.
