Looking for options when comes to engine work and/or sleeving my 2011 Aluminum Modular GT500 shortblock. I live in AZ, but Im willing to drive my short block to AZ, SoCal or Texas. Probably ready to do this by next year, but want to get my ducks in a row with estimates etc. I'm not opposed to shipping to east coast, but I'd feel better being able to transport and pickup myself.

It's important to find a shop that has experience with the aluminum GT500 engines, but I'll assume that shops who build Aluminum Cobra engines are also prime candidates.

Any one heard of, or have used LA Sleeve products or services?

I've sent a request into Accufab for options, but have not yet heard back.

Hard no on MMR.

Texas, what you got??

bigpoppa is your guy for texas shops to do this work. I know of good lsx shops, but not do much on the ford modular side.

Steve at RED in Oceanside if I was at your location and would be my only choice. His sleeving is second to none, hell he developed the Darton system.

I have no pony is this show but I see two things on the interent. A lot of fast MMR cars and a lot of facebook hate on them. I've yet to read one post from an actual owner that has had an actual issue with a MMR engine.

My dyno operator seems to think very high of L&M but bring your wallet and them some. Also people seem to like Livernois. What are your goals?

That is because MMR forces negative shit to be removed from sites.

Do a FB search and read through this.

Your mom
I use G&G for the machine work and then I handle the assembly. I'm too tied up right now building CNC machines to take on any engine builds.

Triangle does reputable work and they would be the only place in Texas I would recommend.
