MG MGB Technical - Engine Builders in the South East, US

I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1979 MGB LE and am considering a performance rebuild per Peter Burgess' book. Anyone know of a good rebuilder or machine shop preferably in the southern Virgina or North Carolina region. Thanks

Motion Machine in Danville, Va is very good. Dale can do just about anything. I do not have an address other than Danville,Va.

Dick,

There are two that I know by reputation. One is in Blowing Rock, NC and his name is Jack Austin. His Email is jackscars@charter.net and he has a website which is www.jackscars.net. I just tried his website before sending this post and it seems to be down at the moment.

The other one is Hap Waldrop and he is the owner/operator of Acme Speed Shop in Greenville, SC. His email is hapwaldrop@acmespeedshop.com and his website is www.acmespeedshop.com.

Hope this will be of help.

Cheers - Dennis

I personally know all three of the proprietors of the shoppes listed above.

You cannot go wrong with any of these gentlemen.

Rick,

Thanks. Motion Machine in Danville is close to Clarksville. Also saw an article in the MGV8 magazine on this facility. While I'm not looking for a V8, I'll contact Dale and see what he can do for me. At this point I want a good, reliable, fast road engine.
