I'm looking for the following:
- workbench mounted engine stand
- vice
- credible SF Bay shop that can do head work (valve seat and guide replacement, port/polishing)
- Lightened flywheel
Any help is much appreciated!
Cheers,
Andrew
Full Version: Engine Stand - Flywheel - Vice - SF Area Shop
Shouldn't be too hard to find Vice and head work in the SF area...

Andrew,
For the head work, you should ask Dave Bonbright @ Engine Masters, he has a small shop (in his garage) in Sonoma, his number is (707) 938-8122. He's been doing Air Cooled Porsche and VW Machining for almost 50 years.
Cheers,
Dominic

Dominic,
Do you remember a guy that did heads near the San Jose Airport, had a small shop in an industrial park, used an old manual Bridgeport mill for doing the heads. I want say his 1st name is John or Dave? I think Bugformance was just a few blocks away.
