Machine shop recommendations

Im sure this has been asked a few times, but Im having trouble getting a solid lead.

I have a EJ20 block that needs the cylinders bored and the deck machined. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to use as a machine shop in the Twin Cities area? the motor is completely disassembled and cleaned already.

does anyone have any experience with a Rock Auto rebuild kit? or should I stay away?

I have the crankshaft that came out of this block as well, it had bad rod knock, does it have any value to anyone?

Thanks all,

Chris

 

I would also like to know of a reputable machine shop for when I eventually get to rebuilding my supra.

 

We use Headwerks, never had a problem. They do quality work, out of Minneapolis.

 

pretty sure Headwerks only works on Cylinder heads, they said they would mill the deck, but no game on the cylinder bore.......

Seems like they can do that for you

 

Another +1 for Headwerks... Not the cheapest option, but they do great work and keep you informed throughout the process.

 

I got an e mail from them saying they would only work on heads and mill the deck (if no one else would), I figured they were they way to go to begin with. so, still looking for other options unfortunately

 

Dudes...go to Metro Engine in New Brighton...I have had 20+ Subaru engines through there...they do the best job...and they know how to deal with subaru specific issues!!
