machine shop

Currently rebuilding my 12h-t and had my camshaft inspected by a machine shop. They did mention pitting. But said it’s probably no concern. Just looking for opinions. Should I get a second opinion? Also thought about just buying a refurbished one.

Does anyone out there have a machine shop in Nashville or surrounding areas that they trust with a 2F? Thanks! Jason

I am looking for a good engine machine shop near Ontario, California. Need to hot tank the core, bore it out, balance, and maybe have them assemble the bottom end as well as inspect the head and make any repairs. I’ll mate the top and bottom. I was spoken to about Wayne’s Engine Rebuilders out...

Good Morning, I live in Ocean Isle Beach (mainland) and we have a 1977 FJ40. Have posted on the 40 tech side under Bryce112 (we have Lil Red). Would anyone have a recommendation for a machine / head shop that can R&R the head that somewhere this side of North Carolina / South Carolina? Would...

I’m looking for a shop that is reputable in north county. I’ve got a 8-72’ FJ40 block I’m trying to restore. Currently stuck with the flat head screws staked into the timing plate. Would love to take it to a shop and have them replaced along with other clean up processes while I have the block...

Im ready to take my block (8-72' FJ40) in for help removing the 3 flat head screws that are hold on the timing plate. They were staked in and Im having a heck of a time removing these. I've tried penetrating oil, heating up with a torch and impact screw driver until my hands felt like pins and...

Had a full rebuild done on my 2F and am assembling it with a mechanic today. Machine shop already put together the bottom end and part of the cylinder head. What is the best way to check their work? I consider taking it all apart because I don’t fully trust them or know them, but the mechanic...

One of my projects on my 75 FJ40 is to rebuild the original 2F. Does anyone recommend a shop to get the block bored/honed, crank turned and head work? Then quick tech question. I've got a 2F out of an 84 FJ60. What parts a interchangeable? From what I've figured out so far, the heads and oil...

Does anyone know a good shop that can weld up my cracked Manifold? Also, I need it milled down as well. If you have any suggestions of a place in the Valley..Please let me know...and what should this cost me? I am new to the area and first timer on the manifold. Thanks!

Well, I am at that point that most of us have been....the good ol cracked intake manifold. I only had to pull off the carb and look at it... even as dirty as it was, it's pretty clear. Suspected that this might be one of the problems...along with bad gaskets, loose bolts, etc... Now I...

I just wanted to pass on a solid local business that took care of my 2nd c-clip groove machining on my birfs for the part time mod moving to Aisin locking hubs. He doesn't do much local or walk in work, most of his work comes from accounts in Ohio but he was referred to me by @Spamcheese...

I am rebuilding a 2F and asked the machine shop to balance the rotating assembly. They said that unless it is "neutrally balanced" they would need the harmonic balancer and flywheel to do it right. Is that necessary? The reason I need to know is that this is a donor transplant motor that the...
