Re: Model B motor needs rebuild any advice
Turlock Machine would be a good choice for you, they do nice work. Don't bother with #13, I don't do engines.

My engine was rebuilt by Taylor Engine shortly before Jay Steel passed away. Chris Thoensen bought the business, and last I heard had moved it Brea, CA (had been in Whittier, CA). I have not heard anything about them in years. When I Google it, I get the following address: 170 Gemini Ave A-2, Brea, CA 92821 and phone number (562) 698-7231. You can give those a try and see if you can talk to them. |

31Abone,
Like Jim says, Turlock Machine is probably the closed shop near you. You should call him (209-495-1689) because he has a waiting list. David Serrano |

Re: Model B motor needs rebuild any advice
If your engine is orginal to car, do you want to replace with another one?
How many miles did your engine last? |

Re: Model B motor needs rebuild any advice
Guy on the Hamb has a turn key engine just being finished by Turlock. His plans changed and he is selling it, asking exactly what the Turlock bill is. I believe there is a long wait for their engines. A search over their will find it, he just listed it this week , I believe.

Re: Model B motor needs rebuild any advice
WHN, it is a model B engine, so most likely not original to car.
