Engine re-builder in Los Angeles area.

Post by Chris Haynes » Tue Oct 01, 2019 4:19 pm

Some months ago a couple people recommended a engine re-builder in the area just South of Los Angeles. I am ready for the rebuild now but can't find that post. Refresher please.

It was probably Larry Blair. Unfortunately he had to close his business due to a stroke. He is coming along though, and I wish him all the best.

I’m thinking that Larry’s assistant has take over the dutiful and the shops name may have changed.
