RE: [Chevelle-list] What to do with my 396??

Tom,   I don't live in Phoenix anymore, but when I did I looked into BRE and boy are they pricey!  If you decide to do your own work, check out King Balancing in Glendale.  My understanding is they're the place all the machine shops send the balance jobs to.  I went directly to them and skipped the middle man.  They'll even assemble your engine if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays.   Well, I thought I was almost done with my car..was spurred on with the recent paint your engine posts so I thought I'd like to pull the engine and check a few things while I had it out to paint and found a can of worms..looks like I'm going to have to rebuild the motor..My question is while I'm in the process what should I do??  It's a 68 396/350 horse that I would like to do a few upgrades to maybe heads, cam.. I figure while it's out and I gotta do it anyway, at least that's what I'm telling my wife..i'd like to make it a little stronger without getting too crazy..I know it's a pretty broad question but I figured I'd just see everybody's thoughts.. you all have been so helpful..thanks..one last question, anybody know of a good engine guy in the Phoenix area?   Tom Purtzer 67 SS
