Any suggestions for good builders or machinists on the East Coast, particularly in the South East?

'Down and Dirty Dan's' on Internet has a few 390 and 401 blocks for sale...

Check out K1 Technologies stroker kits for AM 360 & 401

Hey, if you got the money, no reason not to build a 498 CID tall deck AMV8 aluminum block made by Indy Cylinder Head.

I would not build another race engine without o-ringing the block.

See SCE head gaskets for AMV8 on Internet.

As we seem to be throwing names it to a ring, the thread below this Rozwell 343 Rebuild
being done by Rick Jones, he has built 426ci stroked 401`s for a variety of street and drag cars, with specs similar to the one mentioned.

Hello all, found this thread while looking for builders close to me. I live in Silver City NM and would like to find someone in the Tucson, AZ or south AZ area for a 401... Not a race engine just a nice one with cam. I don't run a 401, in my 1 Ton Scrambler Rock Crawler (360) now but I have a compete 401 engine. Don't know what it came from just was told by my mechanic it was running when it came out a good while back. He did my 360 10 years ago when I moved here and we've been friends ever since.

Anyway, that is what I'm looking for, Phoenix would be OK just Tucson is Sooo much closer. Thank you!
