Machine shop, Lancaster PA
 
I am looking to purchase a 1968 MO 302 block out of Lancaster PA. I need a reference to a machine shop to have this block magnafluxed and checked before buying.
Any suggestions.
I just found out this week that the MO block I bought two years ago from a shop in Florida is no good due to a crack near one of the main cap bolts,despite the shop saying " all machine work done,ready to assemble"

Seller referred me to Ruhls, owner is not well and no accepting new jobs.

Barry Ober is really good. Also Krimes Performance in Ephrata 717-733-0505 ask for Ron.

Both are good. I would think the person selling it would do all this leg work for you Canuck?
Tell him where to take it and "you" get a report from the Machine Shop before purchase.

Got in touch with Obers, setting things in motion to get it checked out.

I would recommend CAM'D Machining in the Landisville/Salunga area. They did really good work to my '57 283 block. Really good guys to do business work.

I used to work for Ron years ago. I have known Mike for 30+ years and I still talk to him a few times a week.
