I've heard lots of good things about Pineapple. Aren't they in your area?

ya they are, i have been meaning to stop on by and talk with them, but just haven't had time. Cork sports iis also here in Portland. but they don't do rebuilds, i think. I can get almost everything else i need from them though. :yum:

If you can get up here to Seattle, there is Atkins.

:bigok:

i've had no personal experience with atkins or pineapple. but it seems there have been some unsatisfied customers with atkins. i've heard zero horror stories about pineapple.



just something to think about.

Pineapple, as far as I can tell, is the most respected engine builder in the U.S. Atkins is well known, but there have been issues with how he does stuff. Pineapple has done many, many engines. So far I have yet to hear anything bad other than cheapskates whining about paying for brand new stuff. Do not let his prices scare you off if you think they are too high. From what I hear, you are paying for the best.



If you do good work then maybe, just maybe, one in ten people will say something good. If you do something bad, one out of one people will broadcast the bad news. All I've heard is good from Pineapple.



I've been there and he knows his stuff, treats you with respect (doesn't dumb down the conversation), and his shop is immaculate. I have not been to Atkins so I can't comment about the shop or Dave.



You are in Portland. Get off your duff and check out Pineapple. You will like what you see. Plus it's in your town. How much more convenient could it be for you. Just go there see it for yourself. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

as much as I'd like the business.... I have to suggest pineapple.

R45 02-11-2003 09:15 PM

your right Jerk i should just get off my ass and go over to Pinapple and see whats up. Thanks for the advise. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif I hope to have everything squared away and have the engine ordered by the end of the month https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
