Joe Built My Motor About A Year Ago And I Was Very Pleased With The Results, All Forged 6.o Liter 370ci 10 Over With Bad *** Heads And All The Other Typical Add Ons, Y1 Mti Cam And All The Normal Bolt Ons And The Motor Made 466 To The Wheels Corrected At Mti On A 90 Degree Day. The Motor Was Built For A 150 Shot Aswell, Although I Have Not Sprayed It Yet. To Make A Long Story Short I Have Pounded This Motor And I Mean Pounded It And It Has'nt Missed A Beat, Holds 60 Psi At An Idle Hot Or Cold And 80+ At Wot. Joe Is An Awsome Guy And Stands Behind His Work And Still Calls To Ask If Everything Is Ok With His Work.

I just got a call from Joe at G&Gs... I have a 5" crack in one of the cylinders! Does anybody know of or have a 350 4 bolt main pre 1985? Please let me know if you do.

I am taking a motor to them tuesday to get built for a G35 and had one done a couple months ago for a G35 as well. Turnaround was quick as well as very clean and organized. My buddy Sergio has had all of his motors done there and all make good power and has had no problems what so ever.

I would disagree with that statement, BUT I know that Joe's machining is VERY good no doubt.

Joe has my shortblock now. Should be finished with it next week, can't wait to get it back. Will have to sit and look at it in my garage for a while though. New house and new truck kinda sucked my play money up for a couple of months..LOL Joe has been very helpful, he has called me numerous times to let me know about little issues and to ask me questions about my setup just so he can get it spot on!!

HOLY THREAD REVIVAL
Yea how bout dat, I used the search function.
Bumping this back up, curious if Joe still does quality work. Just looking to have a set of heads refreshed, was going to run everything over to west side but it would be nice to have a shop right here by the house.

They still do great work. I know joe's business partner Chris pretty well. I have seen several engines that have done and all have held up great. When the time comes for my engine to be gone through I will be dropping it off to them.
Ps they did 100% of the machine work for the COPO that won LS Fest last year.
