I'm looking for a reliable and affordable machine shop that "knows" turbo buicks in N. Illinois.
Lost a head gasket on my 87 GN last fall - and with over 80K miles - and a leaky real seal - a rebuild is likely prudent.
The car is a typical 12 second recipe car (12.60s w/alcohol injection) - so it's pretty basic.
The cylinders look surprisingly good - and the pistons tops relatively carbon free (no doubt in part to Razor's Alcohol kit).
I'm half tempted to just replace the head gaskets - replace the rear seal and re-gasket the motor.
Of course the other half is tempted to go ahead and freshen the motor so I won't be pulling it again anytime soon.
Any thoughts on ANS Performance (Melrose Park - Barton), Opel Engineering (Streamwood), or ???
