Is Lou Czarnota still officially open for business down that way? I've heard nothing but good things about him.

You were there, too, huh? What a crappy day. Ray-- remember you showed me that video of the primered classic truck that you said you almost bought? That dude drove right by me in Carlsbad! Small world.
 
DCEPTCN THANKS ALOT, I'LL GIVE HIM A CALL SEE HOW MUCH HE CHARGES. I TALKED TO SOD BOGOSIAN AND QUATED ME ON A SET UP. HE'S UP AT LA. BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE LOU'S PLACE IS AT
BUT I'LL LOOK AT THE MAP. THANX AGAIN
 
Abner,

Both Lou and Sod do good work. I know Lou sold his shop last year and is semi retired so you might want to see how much working on cars he's doing these days. I think it varies with his mood that week. ;)

Another guy who is really good and used to do work with/for Kenny Bell is Tim Lee at Don Lee auto service in Rancho Cucamonga. He's the guy with the '65 Skylark with the GN drivetrain that runs 10's.

There is a machine shop I use locally that could build an engine for you in Lakeside area. I don't know if you plan on installing it yourself but they can handle that too. If you need their # call me. Don't forget to leave your # because I don't have it anymore.

Lou Czarnota certainly knows his stuff. Was the SS/DX record holder back in the late 90's with a Stage 2 GN. He has forgotten more than most of us know about Turbo Buicks :). Forgot to mention he is a giant.... at 6'6" or something. I'm 5'6" so talking to him was funny at the time.

I have a 109 block, .020" JE's, stock rods w/ ARP's, stock GN crank balanced, billet #2/#3 main caps for sale soon if you are interested. Zero miles built by S&S Automotive (first small block blown alcohol dragster in the 5's) Rick Santos NHRA driver w/ 23 National wins with their motors.
