SoCal speedshop??? where???

Can anyone please tell me where a good speedshop is in the SoCal area, preferably in the Los Angeles Area. I've been to a couple in Burbank, but they dont even carry AN lines and AN fittings for my turbo.... Right now, I am in need of some asmsoil synthetic oil and AN lines.

And is there anyone/shop that can swap out a tranny in the SoCal area. It will be a stock swap, so no mods. I can do it myself, but I just dont really have the time right now and it would be a lot easier with more proper tools.

Thanks,

Chris

Berg's Hardware in Pasadena has pretty good prices and a good selection of Earl's fittings and hose. It's on Altadena north of the 210 about two blocks.

Berg's - #626-793-6161
Take 210 East, exit Altadena/Sierra Madre. Turn Left. Go north two to three blocks....on the corner on the left side of the street across from the gas station.

If you can, take the turbo with you...its easier for them to find what you need.

That's funny, I have always gotten good prices there....better than say PAW or the old Glendale Speed Center....too far is going to Earl's off the 405! No one else around here has the selection. They guys behind the counter at Berg's could use some personality lessons though...

Hell yeah Metric Specialties...I'm there at least once a week!
