Living in the great white north (MN) I am looking for suggestions regarding a builder in the tri state area that can put together a 572 hemi. I have a new 4.5 bore mopar block so will need most everything else to have a complete engine. Looking for a street motor with 700-750 HP that is anvil reliable. As with anything else price is a consideration and I would rather be able to take and retrieve the finished product without the hassle of shipping. Opinions/suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Best Machine in Michigan

Opel Racing Engines, I heard does great work out there. I believe there are in Wisconsin.

Off the top of my head. Wheeler racing engines/dyno services in Blaine. Chuck lofgren/Ktre in East Bethel. Northern cylinder head in Andover. Sharadon performance in Hugo. R&R in spring lake park. Magnum superchargers in Cedar or Oak Grove.

Most of these shops aren't mopar specific but who cares. I've had good service with Northern who fixed my indy heads and made them flow nice and wheeler just did my machine work. I've talked with chuck many times about transmission tech and some engine stuff. Heard nothing but good about sharadon. They were friendly when I stopped by cuz I spotted cool rides out front.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the quick responses and information.

So ya think just any competent (and generic) shop can spec and build a big inch Hemi with no drama.

The OP can take that advise if he wants to, but he would be much better off to go with an experienced Hemi builder.

lol not saying that. They do chevy and ford and mopar wedge stuff and have done hemi's but arent "mopar specialist". As always talk to a few builders and make a choice. After saying "most of those shops" I added a few who love mopars. Lofgren does lots of hemi stuff as has sharadon and wheeler.

Opel engineering is in Streamwood il not wisconsin and yes Ted knows his hemis

Another vote for Ted at Opel Engineering, Streamwood, IL.

Call Larry at Napa in Carroll Iowa. Don't be fooled by the Napa name. He's part owner in a Napa store, and he has a state of the Art machine shop. Yes he knows hemi's. 712-792-4381

Thank you. I will be on the phone in the AM.

Another vote for BEST Machine in Michigan. Modern cylinder head is also in Michigan with great porting of heads and not too far from the boys at BEST.

Dave Dudek as well in Michigan.

Kilpatrick racing engines Waukesha,wi Goodwin competition I think in Oshkosh,wi?? May be wrong on that. And The Race Shop in Seymour,wi seems to bee good at most any motor

BG Racing in PA.

Best Machine - stay tuned my 572 is being built there right now!

My cruising buddy had his 392 rebuilt by Tony Bischoff @ BES. 11 years later, it is still going strong.

Opel is in Streamwood, IL. Ted used to run a 68 Super Stock Barracuda, he knows his stuff! He has built a couple of engines for me, they were all flawless.

That was Haner's car with a low deck hemi that Ted built and it was a monster!

Lofgren.... he's definitely been there done that.
