Anyone from the St.Louis area use a local machine shop that understands Mopar Big Blocks and not small block Chevys.
Looking to get some crank work done.
There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama & people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good.

I have some friends who use AMT in Ferguson for their Mopar needs. One in particular has a small block Dart (street car) that runs mid 10's on street tires and high 9's on a 125 shot. He drives that car all over and runs it hard all the time.
Call AMT & ask for Doug, see what you think.

J D Engine & Machine 900 Spencer Ave Columbia, MO 65203-1012 (573) 445-4550‎ They are a little ways away from St.louis but they seem to do good work, I had my crank and rotating assembly balanced by them. They built a few Mopar engines to compete in one of the Mopar Magazines, Check it out here. I have also used Beiers Auto Supply for the last pair Mopar cylinder heads I had done. Beiers Auto Supply 1157 Gravois Rd Fenton, MO 63026-4568 (636) 343-2025‎ (636) 326-3151‎ They were able to help me out, did a very good job. Quality of the work impressed my Dad, which is hard to do. Good price, but I haven't been there in a few years.
