Default Getting rid of Webers.

After talking to several tuners I have decided to remove the 4X48IDA Weber intake on my Kirkham's 427FE and install a Shelby aluminum intake with a Holly 750cfm carb, turkey pan, and air cleaner. I will soon have all the necessary parts (fuel lines, throttle linkage, turkey pan, air cleaner top, bottom, filter, manifold, & carb.) and I am looking for the best shop to do the conversion and dyno tune the motor after the new intake system is installed. What would be the best shop to get this done at? PM me or call 602-430-4877. Thanks in advance for the help.

Chip

If you said what state, municipality, county, part of the country you reside in, some replies would be more forthcoming, or are you looking for the best shop nationwide??
You will get a lot of opinions on that one....are you selling the Webers or hanging on to them?

Hey, lineslinger..

He is from the Phoenix, Arizona area.

Chip,

There are supposed to be a number of places in town that do FE stuff. Hopefully, some one that has experience with these places will chime in.

Mike

There are two that come to mind. One is B and R automotive on Mcdowell and 28th Ave. the other is in Scottsdale Airpark. It's called SVT, I think. They did a good job for me. It's been a year or more though. I currently use B and R for the problem(s) I'm having. A professional group of guys. They also have a chassis dyno. (602)
