Sidepex, RotaryShack, RMS and Lucky7. Nothing but good experience. They treat me right every time except they dont polish my shaft.

since your in the valley you may want to check out

http://jandgautomotive.net/

Depending on what you are having done, J&G and RMS are the only 2 shops I would use.

I am sure there are other good shops in the valley. But, these are the only 2 I have used, spent a lot of money at and feel comfortable recommending.

Thanks for the geopgraphy lesson. Did they even have maps when you went to school, or did you have to chisel that **** out on a rock?

I've gone to a couple rotary shops. After visiting Lucky 7 Racing, right off the 210 and 605, I have found my shop for life. They are 100% legit, good guys. Seriously, just visit the shop and you'll see why everyone loves it.
