comments: For you Chicagolanders! Bud is a fantastic guy (he's an old guy with a strict "No B.S." policy), and puts together 200,000 mile motors every day. He won't quote you horsepower, he won't spec a cam for you, but he's absolutely THE guy when it comes to machining everything and putting it together. He stands by his work (longer warranties than most places offer), and the best part is: he's WAY cheaper than anyone in the area. He's built hundreds of hot street motors that have lasted for years....I recommend Bud's work to everyone I know. Visit http://www.engintecs.com/ for some info/pics of their work.
