Bob has built two motors for me and several for friends as well. We go to Gromm's for machine work as well as complete motor builds. Recommended. PM me if you want more details.

A good friend of mine had a problem with a BBC build. Some of the intake bolts were cross threaded. Not a huge issue but if there is a problem with your build Bob's customer service leaves something to be desired.
