I'm just going by their website and the services they offer.. they seem to do all the things I need. But i need to know if they actually do good work. there are machine shops here that should be able to do what I need but the people running them cant even seem so do simple things right.

I have met him and have seen his work but was not aware he had a machine shop. thought he just did fab. I need precision machining, headwork, and flow testing.

They are one of the best in the business. I'm a machinist by trade and they are the only shop i trust to machine my motors. I'm actually quite surprised you havent delt with them before since youre an 03 OG

Can't go wrong with Abacus. They've been doing it for a long time.

I have always used a shop here in Richmond but considering this motor will have about 10k in it i dont trust these dudes and they have been pissing me off lately with lack of communication and not getting things done on time.

Chuck at Abacus is a good guy. I use this shop whenever I need work.
