Parts Polishing
« on: June 10, 2011, 06:57:57 PM »
I have made a deal with my polisher to build an engine for his panel delivery truck in trade for polishing labor. 

Therefore,, if you need something polished I would be happy to get it done for you at "cost". 

In the past I have trusted him with some very expensive parts, and he has not let me down.  I am in the middle of finishing up a polished all aluminum 621 cubic inch engine and he did the block, heads, dry sump pan, and Milodon gear drive, but all of that was completed prior to our current trade arrangement.

The guy has a small, family run shop, does great work at fair prices, all of my stuff goes there, but I don't get that many parts done.

Talking to him today about a raw part I brought over for polish, he would make some good deals on production type stuff too.

Still have this deal going with my polisher.  His engine is not paid for yet, everyone has been happy with the quality of his work.

Probably depends on the manifold, since there are so many different tunnel rams.  Has it been polished previously, or still just the rough casting?  Also going to depend on if you want it completely polished or only hit the parts that are exposed and easy.  Only way to be really accurate is to have him look at it, but with a better description I can get a quote from him on the phone.
