LQ4/9 Rebuild, Bay Area shop recommendations. - Lateral-g Forums

CRCRFT78 · #1 01-31-2015, 10:05 PM

I picked up a 6.0L a few weeks back for $80. I pulled the heads to see what was going on with it and saw the pin on a lifter let loose and the roller bearing fell out. The cam will need to be replaced, but other than that it looks to be rebuildable but would like to have a shop inspect it and give me a professional opinion. Any recommendations on a reputable shop in the Bay Area?

Hi Jose,

There a guy on the East bay that rebuilds a lot of LS stuff. I'll see if I can get his info for you.

Dave's Machine Shop in Newark
SP Automotive in San Pablo
Synergy Motorsport in Fremont

Are just a few shops I'm familiar with. They all have great reputations.
