Default Orlando/Tampa Area Engine Rebuilders
Lost my notes, several years back talked with a shop in the Orlando area about a performance rebuild. They came highly regarded from several members in here, would anyone know who they are, if they're still around?
What about the Tampa area?

Call Kirby Apathy (VeeTwin Performance), one of the forum sponsors. His shop is located in DeLand, about 40 miles north of Orlando IIRC.

If you don't want to go that far, try Wes Brown at Cycle Rama in Pinellas Park. He has done some great work for me, head flowing, boring, etc.
