    I live about 60 miles north of Detroit, just a few miles north of I69, east of Imlay City.

    Anybody have any recommendations for a good machine shop in my area?

    '70 Chevy 350 truck engine block needs the work. The usual stuff...remove the cam bearings, hot-tank, shotpeen maybe, overbore, dust the decks if needed, install new cam bearings.

    Thanks.

    I'd ask Russ Kraft up in Marlette. I'm sure he will know someone. I'm in Caro so I go to Bay City but that's probably too far for you.

    Thanks, fuel pump...but I'm not familiar with Russ Kraft. Does he run a shop in Marlette?

    Yes he has a big repair shop and is a big time car collector/restorer as well. And a real nice guy too.
