Machine Shops in Western Canada
Before I go thru the hassle of sending parts back and forth to the States does anyone know of any Porsche Competent machine shops in Western Canada. I will need a set of heads twin plugged and rebuilt and a crankshaft/rods checked and rebushed.

I would check with Steve @ Rennsport Systems. He can give you the pros and cons on machine shops. You want to do this right the first time, preferably by someone with much Porsche experience.

Thanks Jeff, does he do the rest of it? Rod reconditioning, crank inspection/polishing?

Just heads and cases. I use High Performance Engines in Burnaby for rods and cranks, they are very knowledgeable. The local Hi Perf Porsche shops and the dealer all use High Performance Engines and Lance Hayward for their work. High Performance is 604 299 6131. Dave will answer, he know me pretty well and knows Mike J as well who recent 993 rebuild was featured on this board.
Cheers

Hmmmmm, Eurometrix can probably do that. There are only a couple of places that seem to get talked about for that. I think another place is Pacific Fuel Injection?? A quick search should yeild some answers on that one.
Good luck, let me know if I can help any other way. Cheers

I second Jeff's recommendations for Lance Hayward and High Performance Engines...they both did a fantastic job and are willing to spend the time to answer all my questions, etc.
Best of luck! Cheers, Mike
