Default Engine work....

Looking to do some engine work ( heads, cams, etc. ) to my scoot. Can anybody suggest a trustworthy engine mechanic in Fort Lauderdale area? Thanks!

Heading out shortly to get my Wood TW-555 cams and SE pushrods installed by Gina at Candys listed in the above link.

Also having her do the 1,000 (in my case 2000) mile service too.

SoFla,
Oil is cheap, man. Don't wait another 2000 miles to get rid of all that assembly lube from your cam-swap. I have no idea if that stuff mixes with your oil, or if it gums-up your oil filter. But I rode mine for a few hours after the cam-swap, then changed the oil and filter. Peace of Mind, at the very least. Steevo
