TSCOMPTUNED all day long! Tom is awesome to talk to, knowledgable, and responds quickly. I had dealt with a bunch of builders that were not fun to deal with at all, so hopefully I can save you the headache as well, I just received my engine back last week and in the process of putting it back together.

Tscomp has a machine shop who does his machine work that is very good. He then checks every clearance and assembles the entire engine using super precision instruments. If there is any error on machine work he gets it fixed before a customer would ever see it. FYI BR doesn't have there own machine shop either. I don't know many shops that do because the machines are VERY expensive and to know how to use them is a career of its own.

And one of them would be me!

Thanks for the referrals everyone i appreciate it! Anyone who does go with me for engines (a lot of my customers do now, which I'm very thankful for), should be very confident everything is done right and put together carefully.
The machine shop 5 minutes from my house I use for hot tank/wash, bore, hone, etc, (Thanks Adam for the wonderful referral) has been around for over 60 years & update their machines quite frequently. I also do have a lot of money invested in measuring tools personally. Mostly all Mitutoyo branded stuff.
My tools can see .0001" of an inch changes just on a few degrees of room temperature change. When building I keep the garage around 70F or so & sealed.
I have started to document all the builds now on my facebook, and this really seems to help my customers out when it comes time if they want to sell their car, or show proof of engine work.
Thanks again for the referral guys I really appreciate it. Just like tuning, I understand I have to work my way up to get reputable for building engines.

Also my pricing is very competitive, so feel free to pm me. Remember right at this time i do not have a physical shop, so i have no overhead really. Because of this, i hand my customers that discount. This is how im able to sell you guys parts and things like this cheaper then other places that make / have a lot more money then me in general. I've always been this way when selling products. Instead of making $60 a part, I will make $30. I believe being like this is how you win over the customers, because they see you really care about them, and try to give them the best price you possibly can.
To date ive built around roughly 30 engines, and have no failures yet. I believe there's around at least 7-8 full documentation albums on my facebook.
If I don't respond by PM just email tom@tscomptuned.net

You are welcome for the recommendation. They are good guys who do very good work. I trust them explicitly. I don't have the tools to check so I just pay them to do all measurements and machine work.
