Does anyone work at or know of any good machine shops in the area. Getting my cam caps and head line bored for a good price is the only thing that will get my Supra up and running this year.

Gary Burch suggested BRK…but looking for other suggestions too or if anyone has a hook up.

BRK cannot line bore your cam caps. It would just get sent out. For something like that I think napa might be your only bet as much as i would hate to say that.

Try klispies too I’m not sure of their capabilities.

Since line boring a cam cap is not an everyday thing and as evidenced in this thread, it takes a special machine/tooling and not every shop has the ability to do it and more importantly do it right.
