He's been machining for 3 or 4 years now at his day job but he was finally able to pony up the dough and pick up a cnc mill for his own little personal shop. Here is some stuff he was working on the last time I was over there having him weld some random exhaust related stuff for me.


Bungs to convert a carb manifold to an efi manifold - he has a late 60s Le Mans that he's decided to switch over to efi but didn't like any of the stuff that was out there. I think its a Weiand intake.

Here's his big pet project right now - a three piece "throttle body" designed to bolt up to a carb 4150 (I think, I don't know carbs) bolt pattern so the same classic style can be retained. He says there are a few companies making them but they all suck for flow so he wants to bring a better one to the market.

Here's some miscellaneous stuff on the mill. First is obviously an intake, I think its the same one with the bungs but I could be wrong. Then he had an old ford racing block and some high dollar heads up there getting o-ring grooves. The guy running this stuff is local and is running a yellow 99-04 mustang tube car.

He does a lot of my welding for me but now he's switched focus over to the new mill and it looks like I'll be getting some trick parts on my cars pretty soon. Oh, and if you guys have a hook up on raw material, be sure to hit me up, he's always looking for a better deal.

I forgot a pic of the intake in the mill so I threw that in there. I know most of you guys have your shops that you go to regularly but if you need any work done at a reasonable price, shoot me a pm and I'm sure he would be happy to get the added business in this economy!

The shop is in Allen Park, near 94 and Southfield. The shop isn't that big, couple car spots and the mill take up most of the space.

PM me his number please. I need some work done this winter and I'd rather spend my money with someone like him than a bigger company. Thanks
