Head gaskets blew on the lt1. I am pulling the engine soon to start a rebuild and was wondering if anyone knows of a good shop I can take the block to? Hopefully on the NW side of town.

HKE for sure, but another respectable good machine shop is scroggins off mcgowen in downtown/midtown area. Quality work.

I think you'll have a hard time getting in touch with HKE and if you do it will be a long wait. They do great work, not doubt about it, but they are backlogged to hell. I had my iron block and heads machined at USA Racing Engines (The Wop Shop) near Hobby. They did a great job and Bruce is a great guy to deal with. Also Owens Racing in Pearland.

And on the NW side there is LME.

Erik has my 398 lt, but just about any machine shop that does quality work can an lt, just a sbc at the end of the day.

Another vote for Houston Engine and Balancing - they've been doing this for a LONG time!
