1- Does anybody know of any GOOD machine shops in the KC area? I would prefer one closer to the Kansas side if possible to reduce travel time since I will probably have to make several trips

2- Do you guys know of a good engine balance shop in the KC area?

3- Does anyone know of a good dyno tune shop in the KC area?

 

I 've used a few shops but not one I'd recommend. The only place I get decent work done I have to go sit on the guy or he'll take forever. For every place somebody recommends I find somebody else who has had a problem there. Let us know if you find a good machine shop.

 

If you are still looking for a good machine shop contact Clay County Rebuilders in Claycomo, Mo. 816-454-0932. They have a pretty extensive machine shop and from what I have heard and seen do really good work. They are located about 1 mile east of I-35 on Vivion Rd. Look for the modified class race car hanging on the building Shops in the rear

 

They were recommended to me also by Midwest Motorsports

CCR is a great shop... Yes it's around a mile from the plant.... Then again everything in claycomo is

 

Sorry took so long- Clay Country rebuilders is about 1 mile west of the Ford Plant, as you head west on Vivion Rd. you'll see Showtime Trucks , then Clarks tools Outlet, -2 building up from Clarks you'll see the race car on the side of the building- shops in the back.
