    Its strange that after years and years of blue printing things one item at a time to make them them way they need to be in a max-max way that with the internet, E-bay, and cnc machines everything is fast,fast,cheap,cheap components---we still do them one cylinder at a time, exactly where we want them

    We recently did a job on a bbc that had been rebuilt by Jasper twice---the main caps didn't match, were out of line worst than you can imagine, the cylinders were all on different lines, deck looked like rocky mountains( peaks and valleys)

    About 25 % of our business is fixing other peoples wet dreams, and recently we have been finding out that a lot of them have seen 2 or 3 redos before they came to us
