Where to get head and block work done?!

[clarkytrd]

Hey guys,

Gonna need my block re-bored and the head will need to be skimmed etc...

Where in the south east of Ireland would people recommend to do this for me??

Im living in Wicklow, so closer to home the better! What are the costs on this kind of work?

Do I need anymore work done to my block and head or?!

Opinions Welcome!

Thanks Alot
John

Depends what sort of job u want lad???
My advice go to some1 with plenty of experience lad!
Martin Tracey has done plenty of 4E blocks and hes work has really gone into class A work in the last 5 years.
So if i was you mate id be dropping ur block off at WESTWARD Engineering
Im speaking from experience mate not hearing stories.
Im using him the last 8 years and hes Top notch :rockon:
