Well I am calling you out. 8 million monopoly dollars that I can put a bigger hole through mine! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

What kind of piston work do you need done? Coatings? Machine work?

If its just a coasting you want, I have heard Max Power does good work although they are not in Cali., but nothing FedEx couldn't take care of.

If its machine work you need, I assume valve pockets or milling the dome down, I would want a very competent machinist. None of which I know are in CA! I just don't trust the local shops, CT, Alba, Duncan, etc.

I wouldn't trust Alba farther than I could spit... I was in there getting some oil filters and dropped by the so called "Race" department. When I asked them if they had dyno tuned any DS's with Lectrons, the dude said they really didn't like them and that they were getting more power with the stocker... right. Sucks they are one of the only dyno's in town.

Im going to try these folks
Racers Edge
Model 188-ATV Dyno
8413 Wild Pony Dr.
Riverside 92509
heard some good things about them on the 450 they build and they are LOCAL!!!!
They quoted only 50 bucks I think i could have done it in my shop, but they are cleaning up the piston even more than I was, these guys seem good, its just scary working with someone not in the DS department.
