shop recommendations

has anyone ever dealt with Race Engines by Universal Automotive Las Vegas.
had previous bad experience with a crew from HENDERSON NEVADA, could do without a repeat.

Any particular reason why you don't want to use an Australian shop?

If you want to use an American shop why not stick with some of the guys on here..... Oakley Motorsports out of Kentucky, Dave Mclaine out of Missouri, Randy Malick out of Michigan, Engine Systems out of Georgia, Kaase out of Georgia.

Known people with great reputations.

tried some Australian shops but could not find any seasoned blocks, could get new svo but $5500 was a bit more than what I was chasing for a streeter. then freight and exchange with import is killing the idea of shipping in from the states, and if I do ship in it will be from this forum.

Lem has A460 blocks he ships

I'm always checking ebay for big block bits. This one has been listed a couple times. Most likely a D9 block.
