Engine Rebuild shop in Long Island NY

Does anyone know of a reputable Porsche machine shop for a Porsche 911 3.2 (1986) hearing nightmares about several machine shops.

The only one we use in the Northeast is Verden Tool in Dover, New Jersey. The pros have carefully cultivated them for a couple decades. What precisely do you need?

Heads = Anchor Atlantic Enterprises

Bouffant hairdos, Miranda, Grace Slick and THESE HEADS

Crank shaft micropolish = any machine shop, this is not a huge deal as long as they can measure and don't take too much off. Verden can handle certainly.

Static balance stuff = Verden. We don't really bother with dynamic balance like the V-8 crowd, you can do a lot yourself by weight matching individual components with an inexpensive balance.

Bored? You'll think about stroking when you see these rods.

Good luck and have fun!

Certainly have the heads rebuilt but don't modify them. 3.2 heads already flow enough for 300hp.
