place to install rods/pistons/cam for dmax

TwinDmax · 06-07-2007, 09:43 PM

I heard there is a decent diesel shop near atlanta. Do they just work on dodges or could they be trusted to take out my engine and install rods, pistons, and machine a keyway for my cam.
I thouht about saving up to send my block to michigan to Merchant Auto but after installing my twins, rear-end, and various other parts, I really don't want to take my engine out and mess something up.
I am still saving up but wanted to get a better idea of what I should do. Any help would be great.
After I get a tune I will make enough power to where I want to be, but I won't be able to keep everthing together for long. Any help or rough ideas for a shop or estimated costs?

I'm not that far from you. I actually have a Dmax that's in the works right now - just waiting on the rods to get here.

I'm wondering if Jeff Garmon's shop is the one your thinking about. . .and yes, he could do it.

yes, I believe I spoke to him or someone from that shop before. All I remember is that he told me that there were no dmaxes with more than an off the shelf chip around here except brandon (bmdmax on dieselplace.com).
I spoke to farmboy today and he said he has a dmax guy. Still have to work out the details.
