hey all i have been stuffed round in a huge way with my 355 build have pretty much all parts apart from pistons/rings!!!!! loking for someone to balance and maby bolt together! im chasing about 500/550hp mark and then want some gas for the strip! who is around sydney area who wont **** me around and not charge 2 arms and 2 legs to do so? would be thankfull for any help!

Sams Performance is a bit of a guru but he will charge and arm and a leg.

I always send my machine work to Dominator in Guildford. Clearances spot on all the time. Machine work is top quality and they take care always. Russell is the guy to speak to. Pricing is always fair.

would you have a number for the guy in guilford? yeh sams has re built a good mates of mine il keep him in mind i expecting a call from westend today! dont have the motor back in my possetion as yet will this week if all goes well

Aaron at Apm in smeaton grange . That's who I'll be using for my machine work on my 355

I would say edmargs, rob builds alot of high end shops engines and doesn't charge the world.... Made 470rwhp 3/4 throttle through a glide with a 383ci n/a on pump in his own car....

have been in contact with aaron from APM yesterday and he was really helpfull! but as this is the first motor i have had built i dont want to just go with the first quote/shop i contact! and as for dominator il be hereing back tomorrow with a quote! is there any one else? just after being really ****ed around by the bloke that had my motor and cash sence march and only just got the crank i dont want to just trust any body!

you wont find better value for money that at apm . You could use some of the bigger shops but you'll be paying more . Maybe speak to pavtek in vic to see what they can offer you on an exchange basis .

have you got/decided on your pistons yet? Did you get chev journal on the crank? H/I beam rods? What crank you get? Hope you went chev journals pistons will be much cheaper bigger range. Cant help you with machine shops but like any balance you'll need your whole rotating assembly plus balancer and flywheel before you go further

un sure as yet still have not picked the parts up! It was left with a bloke asked how much for this power with scatt crank and h beams the pistons are mia! This **** has ****ed me and other people over in a big way! it took the **** 5 months to get this far and im glad he is no longer open to effect others like he has done to others and my self! THANX GUYS at this stage it looks like il be going with APM a little over my budget but want it done properly and he seems like genuin guy/workshop!
