Machine shop for 2.3

[capri5.0]

Does anybody know of any local machine shops that have vast knowledge and experience with the 2.3? I know they run them in circle track so somebody has to build them.
Thanks in advance

I bet George Montgomery would be good with them

Where is he located. I am wanting to go away from the norm and build a higher compression 2.3 turbo with lower boost and large turbo on e-85

[Metcalf Racing]

I think he's in dayton. I haven't been there since I was 13 or 14 but he builds 4cyl indy car engines and he is a ford guy so I'd say he'd be the right guy. I think they call hiM Ohio George. Someone on here will probably chime in and know more on how to contact him

I know a guy that does a ton of work on 2.3's. He has his own shop. Small operation in moores hill Indiana. He does a lot of work for lawrenceburg racers. Let me know if you want to talk with him.

Can i get his contact info from you please?

There is a guy in Springfield who has a machine shop across from Pepsi cannot remember the name of the shop his name is Eddie he is a older fellow who has allot of 2.3 knowledge . He is one of the few shops who can Torque plate hone a 2.3 block . I can call a friend and find out if no one knows who I am talking about .

Without getting into a pissing contest about this shop and that... the OP asked about a shop with "extensive knowledge of the 2.3". To answer that question, yes, George & Gregg have won races and set records in the NHRA racing a 2.3L Pinto. That should be enough of a recommendation without getting into the he said-she said.

However, I'll mention that they also built me a stock block 306" that went low tens and they built my current 427" (which I haven't tested yet).

[Galaxie]

Eddie does have extensive knowledge and has he has been racing circle track for over 30years using the 2.3 engine and building them himself .

Racer Walsh has been out of the game for too long. The new guy to look at is Shannon at stinger-performance and Boport. Oh yeah, this thread is 1.5 years old...
