Jskull351,

Welcome to FTE.. Why not take a few minutes and join the New England Chapter.. We have monthly meetings so you can meet all the characters..

Join Here

Are you near Lawrence, MA ?

I think my son knows of one there that he found from a local speed shop.

I will ask him and tell him to respond..

I live in Billerica, so Lawrence is only a few miles away but I am willing to go out to Green field if the shop really knows the 335 sereis engines. What do I need to do join the new england chapter? I am not building the engine right now, just doing extensive homework

Very easy to join...just go to the Regional Chapters page...scroll down to the New England Region...find the name of our Chapter Leader...sglaine...click on it and submit your request. If he doesn't approve you very quickly...let me know and I'll kick his a**!!!

As far as a machine shop in WMass...Dutcher Automotive Engineering...1.800.747.3973. Anyone I know who has used him is highly impressed.

If you have the time...we're holding our next get together on Sunday the 18th
at the Lars Anderson Automotive Museum in Brookline. Check out the thread with a link...hopefully you will be able to come and join us. Just a warning...Sean the Chapter Leader bites...but...we generally have him muzzled when out in public!!!

How about putting your first name in your sig so we know who were typing at!!! Also...check out our B/S thread...strap on your sense of humor and join in!!!
