Not sure how much it would cost, but I had my head done at Napa in Savage. They did an excellent job. It probably wouldn't be more than about $30-40.

Drop your flywheel off to QPR and have them take it to their "shop of choice." Shouldn't be more than $50 and it's an actual high performance engine machine shop... They don't fuck around.

I'll second the Napa in Savage. That is probably the only place I would go with a flywheel right now.

For a flywheel I'd take it to a Red rooster or something, as as long as they understand the specs it needs to be at then it's a fairly easy job. Some people do want to have a all out machine shop do it, but a red rooster or equivilent will be just fine.

The reason I suggested Napa in Savage is that they also work on Brent Rau's car. When i brought my head in there, with no more than a glance, they knew exactly what it was off of. Chris was very helpful and stayed in contact with me all the time. If something came up, he called to make sure I knew what was going on.

Agreed. I had the fucking yahoos at the napa in duluth fuck up my flywheel nearly a dozen times before they got it right. Thank god Archer borrowed me a mic so I could check the step myself. Because of that I will not bring my shit to a machine shop unless I KNOW that they are on top of things and know what they are doing.

There's a new shop in Crystal named Motors by Gosh. He's the previous head of the machine shop up in Ramsey. He knows his stuff.

Thanks guys. I was concerned w/the places that say they can do it but theres a difference between doing it and doing it right.
