Default Rebuild Shop

Does anyone know any good shops that do good rebuilds on our engines?

A) "They" are no longer in Arlington Heights, AMS moved to West Chicago.
2) They have tons of experinence with the VR4... ...Galant. They wont typically touch the 3000GT or Stealth

I would recommend Apex Auto Machine in Bensenville. Bill over der does great work with any engine. Just be aware that they do a lot of work for other shops (AMS being one of them), so it may take time to slot into their schedule.

I've visited "that guy in Milwaukee's" garage when he did my 60k. There are already 3 VR4s in there, mine made number 4. Jeff definitely knows his way around the engine and could probably have this done for you faster than any shop.
