DO NOT use Wilky's or Baileys!!!!!!! Wilky's screwed up my BBC and I had to spend another $1200 to fix it. Bailey's screwed up "454 ways to go's " motor! They machined the block wrong and didnt do the heads properly!For stock stuff I would use B&B on broadway. Bill carrol is a good guy and does good work. He is friendly on the wallet too. His number is 480-649-8243

I used Zimmerman Raceing in Glendale. Ask for Mike...602-938-7316. Tell him Cole sent you. He built the 468BBC for my Sanger.

I have been screwed by BOTH Wilky's AND Baileys. Avoid them both at all costs. Go ANYWHERE but those two places. Wilky's bored and honed my block to the wrong size! I also paid them to hot tank my block and it came back looking worse than before. I had to pay another shop to DO IT RIGHT! Plus they didn't even have the equipment to do half the stuff I needed them to do. Baileys screwed up my Dads heads, and didn't even have the proper gauges to check them. We had to bring our own to show them the job was done wrong and they still didn't care! Cost a mint to have them fixed. There are a hundred shops in the Phoenix area that will do a better job than these guys. Ask around. I am NOT the only one preaching on this one.
Here's what Wilky did to my block the FIRST time:
