Got my ls/vtec assembled by Tex Blackwell at B.R.E. in concord nc. It has 30k on the clock and not one hiccup yet. Reasonable price too

Re: best motor assembler? (need opinions)
honestly, it depends where you're located. Assembling a B series isn't too tough. Its the machining and prep work that sets it off.
My preferences:
NOVA - Inline Pro
Richmond - Dan Driskoll
757 - Abacus Racing (757-363-8878)
- Accuracy Automotive (757-548-9227)
- Ramey Built (757-621-8641)
- RPRacing (757-575-2416)
North Carolina - BRE (Tex is a good guy and has a great shop)
- RLZ Engineering

yeah thats pretty much what i meant when i said assembling it was getting the block honed etc. but i think ive narrowed it down to a couple. thanks for the input!

Re: best motor assembler? (need opinions)
assembling is much different than machining. machine shops have the CORRECT tools for machining. I wouldnt trust many machine shops with work. which ones are you thinking
