TX Reputable Rotary Shops?

anyone know of any in texas? i've heard of alamo rotary, but i have not heard positive things about that person.

i guess what im asking for is just for my information because i feel alone here in san antonio with all the muscle cars and such. i really dont want to take it to a shop and have them mess up my engine.

thanks if anyone knows of any!

Yes Alamo is closed now, he did great work but he charged an arm and a leg for everything.

Gotham Racing closed, and I think that was the only shop in FT Worth. I do hear that Steve Kan started another shop already but where it is located is a mystery to me...

Steve has another shop close by with a dyno but my understanding is that he is concentrating mostly on tuning. There is a small shop in FT. Worth but I have no idea if they are still open and what kind of work they do. Steve's website is www.kantuning.com and it's off Harmon in Keller if I'm not mistaken. The shop in Ft. Worth was off W. Vickery and their site is www.therotaryshop.com but I know nothing about them.

as far as work goes, none yet. im tryin to learn how to do my own repairs, and i think im making progress because i fixed a major hesitation problem today.

i will probably have my engine rebuilt sometime, but i'll wait till i have the funds for that. plus i figured it would be beneficial if i just knew shops that could actually work on the engine's correctly, instead of lie to me and say yes they can, or just mess up my car completely.
