Default experience with bes racing

Has any one had any experience with Bischoff engines (BES) in Indiana for a street Pontiac build, especially cylinder heads ? My ford and chev buddies highly regard them around here . Just need the heads done and machine work, I'm gonna give it a go on the assembly !

About as good as it gets. Do a search in the Race section and you'll see whose engines/heads they're working on. Impressive list.

BES is an excellent choice but it comes at a price. Another good choice would be Ellison Engine Service in Carthage and yet another option is zimmermans up in Greensburg half way between cinti and indy.

In this area you probably wont find anyone better, maybe Tom Ellis at Ellis engine service on Vine street in Cincinnati.

John Langer and Lynn McCarty are 2 I can think of. Langer runs 8.20's and BES is helping Lynn with his RA5 project. Some really cool stuff coming to market because of Lynn and BES

John Langer had them do his Tiger heads, Lynn McCarty has been working his new RAV head designs with BES.

These guys are on top. The list goes on and on.

BES won engine masters a few times.

There is nothing they can't do it seems...

Lynn McCarthy, Brian Hedrick, John Langer, and Scott Rex I believe have used Bischoff, all are fast.
