ENGINEERING IN CAPE TOWN ?

Post by Andrew.200SX »

I am looking for a good engineering company in Cape Town that will know how to , but won't charge an arm and a leg to do some work for me.
ie: knife edge and balance crank and pistons/rods. Gas flow and port the head, etc.

I have dealt with engineering firms before that did more harm than good, so I am asking for ideas on places that you guys have used and can trust!

Thanks

There is a guy in Kuilsriver that we will be using, he does the work from his house. Very very good and very well priced. He does allot of race engines and Im sure he has done most of my dads race engines.

Just on another note, are you sure you want to knife-edge your crank? You know that you will need to raplce your bearings after every few 1000km's......... if that long......
