Has anyone had engine work done in the Edmonton area.

Thanks .....Rick....

I always go to BeL engines just off 99th street and 47th ave. Pretty much my whole family goes there for machining lol. Really great guys to deal with and know their stuff.

...................DO NOT take anything to MORETTO [they used to be Campbell Automotive] ..............kim..........

 

[troubles brewing]

Thanks Kim; there trouble i take it.

 

[oldkimmer]

............Big time trouble.................................kim..........

I tried dealing with Campbell and then Moretto. Guess I lucked out as neither time they could be bothered to follow up and call me back.

I ended up dealing with The Block Shop. They build and race a lot of Mopars. Rob is always easy to talk to.

............I got a buddy that has gotten AMS to build 3 engines, pretty happy with them...........kim.......

 

[71Duster]

AMS has a good reputation but their prices are insane. Paying for their name is seems.

I phoned to the block shop, they are good to talk to.Thinking of getting a hughes block girtle off them. Just wish our dollar would come up some.
Does anyone know if some one sells lunati in Edmonton?
.......Thanks Rick.....

 

[DartVadar]

Comp stuff is super easy to get in Edmonton...but not Lunati. I had to bite the bullet and order my Lunati cam from the states. It wasn't cheap converting to a solid roller...lol.

I'm interested in the availability of Lunati parts as well.

 

[troubles brewing]

I may just go with comp for that reason.Not the best cam for my combo but i think it will do the job, and the price is right.

.....................Ya, I know what u mean on prices, im wanting to do a bbm stroker, ouch.............kim..........

 

[Abodybomber]

How about FABO member RAMM?.. Just ,a thought......

if you are in grande prairie, jims engines in prince george isnt that far away, he has an excellent reputation, wont sell u what u dont need, and he runs a mopar at the track, which is nice instead of some chevy guy trying to help you. anyway, i was treated very well and will definitely be going back there

 

[rigger3006]

jims engines in prince george isnt that far from GP, he races mopar himself, knows his stuff and wont rip u off. thats been my experience anyway

 

[troubles brewing]

Thanks rigger3006.

Thanks a lot, I've been wondering about a machine shop since I moved up to Smithers.

 

[71Duster]

So whats the story on Moretto? I've had thoughts on getting a chassis dyno done and they seem to be the only game.

 

[oldkimmer]

...............If u have a problem, oh I mean when u have a problem they don't even know u..........My buddy spent 20 grand there on an engine and countless other dollars on alterkation, tremec 5 speed install and hyd clutck only to have everything redone elsewhere........kim...........oh yes I've seen their work and that would be the last place I would recommend to anyone........
