Hi everyone,
I have two flathead v8 engines that need all of the machine work done to them. Pulled one head each found no cracks but each block needs sleeved. I can't seem to find anyone that knows or wants to machine these blocks for me. I will have them taken apart studs removed I have new hard valve seats that need to be cut and pressed in. I need the lifter bores drilled to accept the adjustable lifters. I would like them to be hot tanked magnafluxed and pressure tested for cracks. I hope you can help me? I'm in Lebanon, CT near Foxwoods casino, Mohegan Sun casino and about an hour from Springfield, MA Thanks in advance for your time
