engine machine shop north of Seattle
Any recommendations for a machine shop north of Seattle? We seem to have lost most of the experienced flathead shops over the last few years. Rob at action looks to not want to do any flatheads I am told.

Re: engine machine shop north of Seattle
I had a merc crank ground about 2 years ago at Valley Machine, just off the freeway in Mt Vernon. Told them I had some blocks to bring in later, but haven't contacted them lately. Is Rob the guy who was on Aurora?

Valley Machine said no to doing flatheads today. Yes, Rob is still the owner of Action Machine.

Re: engine machine shop north of Seattle
Oh great... So we are in the same boat. Surely there must be somebody left.
