S. FL Engine Builder?
Looking to get a 13b TT motor ported and rebuilt for a street car. Who are the good builders in the South Florida area? Not looking to get a motor installed, just a straight rebuild. Honest shops only please, there are too many bad stories when it comes to these engines.

Thanks!

If you don't mind shipping or driving, we at GNS racing will more than satisfy your needs. The shop owner carlos gonzales is former NHRA sport compact champion.

My car is currently being rebuilt by http://www.rotarywerks.com/ and it has been great. I have seen his other work and he is pretty active on the forums. Highly recommend him

Orlando isn't South Florida, But Kilo Racing in St Cloud/Kissimmee area is well known and respected.

He had built a motor for me 3-4 years ago. Never a problem - car still runs fine.
Was recommended by a mutual friend (who had moved on to Supras)....
