New to the CB scene and have enjoyed tearing into my new project. Miles are higher on the engine, hoping to connect with others in Western Washington who can recommend a good machine shop.

Funny! I sent all my CB work down to Ape in LA! I have a guy up here, but he's a Hardley Ableson guy. Rolling Eyes

I've managed to find a guy selling a cylinder head that was just refreshed by Ape but he never got around to installing it. I'd like to get the cylinders honed and crank/rod bearings measured for replacement. I lack the tools to properly measure everything myself.

You might try Jim Sawtell "JES Built" in Sandy, Oregon (~160 miles from you) if you don't want to send stuff.
