Who to use in central Texas area for head and block weld/repair?
I've been jacking around since March to get mine welded up after dropping a valve seat on the dyno..
It's been sitting in 2 different machine shops and all they done is walk around it.

Call Slawko, not in Texas by any means but can fix you up. Assume Indy is still doing this work but not sure....

![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/9MJ2B5lb.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/J8GXVpFb.jpg) This is what I'm talking about. Dropped valve seat did this on 4th dyno pull. Dave I'd say I got lucky compared to that. Hope you get it fixed.

Thanks Carnut, So far it has been in 2 different shops that promised to get it done. Stuff just sits in the floor while they walk around it to work o other stuff.
I bought another Indy block, but I'm going to use my B1 heads on it since I have them. Now I have to order a set of pistons for the B1. Wierd bore at 4.400.

Indy did the repair portion of this job, then I touched up the valve job and opened the ports to MW size.
Looks like they’ll be able to race another day......
