I am putting together a 390 FE with a 428 crank and Edelbrock performer upgrades. I need the names of competent and reasonable builders in Orange County L.A. area.
Thanks.

You should talk to Scott Jones in Costa Mesa. He has built 3 engines for me in the past 15 years and his work is rock solid.
Scott built the 390 for my Unique and it is a ground shaker.

He does a lot of Chevy work but knows FE's and how to upgrade the oil passages.

When my engine was going together there was a 428CJ and a Chrysler Hemi being assembled. His number is 714-540-4381.

An engine guy I have used for my Chevy engines is a guy named Bob McKray. He is in Mission Viejo and builds everything well. I have seen every type of engine in his shop. He has been featured in Hot Rod several times for the engines he builds. His number is 949-458-7087

Bon Borders built my car and it was beautifully done, It fell into some disrepair but it is still a quality piece I am slowly putting back together. I think his website is www.imageautoworks.com
