Haha. I think Colorado is jinxed for needing machinists. I had to go to Nebraska to find mine and can't recommend him yet.

Bummer. I guess I'm goin out of state then. I got a 7M, 2 3s's and a 1u that need attention and I don't wanna throw my money and engines away on some pushrod yokle. Lemme know how it goes with your Nebraska dude. Thanks a bunch!

well then I guess I will need to get it fixed before I bring it out and just get it tuned here. :3d_frown:

are there and shops that can tune a car? or are all the Denver shops bolt on installers?

Might depend on what standalone you have. I would try PMing Tlo86, I know he said he had a 2jz swap and he might be able to point you in the right direction with that all.

Turns out Greely Machine will do imports and says he can easily do import spec machine work. I'm gonna give them a shot I guess. I'll let you know. Also there are a few shops tha can tune and whatnot. Not too shabby of work from what I hear.

Hey guys i just dropped off my head to a machine shop that I had heard about. He seems to do really good work and he said he has done alot of supra heads. This is a head only shop it is called Heads by drew in North Aurora. Ill let you guys know how it goes once i hear back from him later in the week.

Will be taking my block to a shop he reccomends and works with also, he said has done a lot of supra motors. But gildorf has also recommended a shop in longmont that he took his motor to. It is called The Engine shop. This was my other choice also but im gonna choose a shop that is a little closer to home.

I'm in longmont, and pretty new to the supra world, but loving every minute of it. If anyone is from around here and would be interested in meeting up and talking supra's I would LOVE IT! :biglaugh:

As far as tuning shops go has anyone had good results with the shop mentioned on page1? (hrd) I've got some cams and springs I'd like put in along with an aem ems on the way and hrd looks like the closest place I've heard of on here.

Anyone have good things to say about em?
