Default Machine work in Central Maine
Anyone know of a place to get all the machine work done on a flathead block in central Maine? I'm looking for recommendations.

I believe Walt does pretty much everything in house.
Don't believe he sends anything out.

Corbett' machine shop in Princeton, Me can do it all. Babbit & line boring, etc. Son is running the shop now but I knew his dad, Errol really well.

Irma hit us pretty hard but no loss of life in S.E. Georgia 36 Phaeton rode the storm out just fine.

Umm, Gorham, Maine is not central Maine. Nor is Princeton Maine. However, thanks everyone for the input. I think I've found the right place. I've sent some heads in to be resurfaced as a "test". We will see how it goes.
