Machine Shop reccomendations in Central FL? (Tampa bay)

[GearAddict]

As bonus check time is right around the corner, I'm starting to get serious about a 440 rebuild or possibly a stroker. Can anyone recommend a reputable shop within 100 miles of the Tampa area?

Much thanks in advance
Scott

Dvorak Machine in Waldo specializes in Mopar. Outside your 100 mile radius, but well worth the extra drive.

I think there is one in Auburndale. Auto performance engines

Isn't that the shop that Mopar Muscle magazine uses?

It might be right at the end of your range limit, but I would give John a call at Express engines located here in Deland FL. His shop is located in the Deland airport complex. It's about 30 minutes west of Daytona Beach.
He has machined several big block mopars for me over the years. I've always been very happy with his work. He uses torque plates to bore / final hone the blocks too which is a plus. He can also balance your engine which is a good idea.
He has an engine dyno and a cylinder head flow bench as well.
John also builds off shore cigar boat and monster truck engines.
He is very knowledgeable with mopars as a plus.
