I need to get my head studs put in, heavy valve springs and have my valve lash adjusted. Does anyone know of any good local service shops to do that work? The only one I'm aware of is in MD.

 

there is keystone diesel in acme, pa, about 35 minutes east of pittsburgh. Never dealt with them though.

 

12 valve performance huh??

There may be more.. but the big ones that come to mind are East Coast Diesel in Lebanon (likely the closest), Carson Stauffer up in Port Trevorton and Antrim Diesel down in Greencastle. Any of these shops would be able to do studs, valve springs and run the overhead with their eyes closed! There's a well known pulling team from the Nazareth area that has Carson do a lot of their work.

Let me know if you need more info on any of the businesses I mentioned..

 

Thanks, unfortunatly there all a bit to far away. I dont think putting the studs in and machining the rocker pedistals is going to be to bad. Its adjusting the valves I cant do.
