Not Ranked
Tony,
Ok, I was just at BPM today picking up my Supra; they replaced my starter and valve cover gasket. This is the first time I've dealt with them but am satisfied after my only visit. Ed, who formerly owned Engineered Performance in Smyrna, works out of BPM now. I know he is quite knowledgable when it comes to fuel injection, turbos, etc... He may also know American v8s, carbs, and other, but I don't know. I also have had good experience working with Jeff, who bought Engineered Performance from Ed. However, I think for the most part it just comes down to the mechanic actually doing the work.
That being said, as previously stated, I hear that Lamar Walden now has a chassis dyno. Lamar and his son Rob have as good a reputation as anyone in the Atlanta area (that I'm aware of) for building high hp racing and hotrod v8s. They built a really strong 383 stroker Chevy engine that I had in an '84 Vette. Tony, for our carbureted engines, I think Rob Walden would be my choice. BTW, they are located about two miles north of 285 on Buford Hwy.
Hope this is helpful.
Joel
