Where to have engine rebuilt?

[techspy]

Hello all. Well, once again my S4 is being stored for awhile while I am away for a year or so on work. After I am back home I will have some $ to invest in it and am looking for some input about where to get the work done. I am thinking of a rebuild with some stronger parts and possibly an upgraded turbo. Right now all seems well except for 2 things. One is the oil pressure (I am sure some of you remember my topics on that). I am fairly confident that it isn't really a problem as I have connected other non-lotus/vdo gauges to it and it reads fine. It is just very low at idle, warm with the factory gauges/sender (both replaced recently). My more concerning problem is that I see a bit of blue smoke at hard acceleration recently. I am not sure if it is the rings, the valves or the turbo that is causing this. In any event, I plan on keeping the car forever and would like to have a reputable builder rebuild the engine with some beefed up parts and to make sure everything is as it should be. I am also considering having the transmission gone through and possibly strengthend too. So who do you guys recommend? I am from North Carolina so it would be preferred to have someone not too far away do the work. But for the best job I wouldnt be against shipping the car wherever it needed to go.

Thanks

I would contact Judson. I am doing my own 907 motor, farming out machine work, and he has been invaluable even though I am not using him. He knows his stuff, the tricks he's given me with Chysler and Chevy bearings for the engine are really great for someone tearing down every 2 years or so. I'm sure he can do the job, might take a couple of months because of machine work, but he would be the fellow I would contact. Email me for his email address, I don't want to post it for the robots to pick up.

Mike at Micheals Motorsports has done many 910 engines and the V8's as well, and he does very good work.
