I just moved to the Olympic Peninsula last year and I have a 5 bolt 289 that I want to build and put in my 64 Sprint. At the same time I'm going to convert it from a Ford-O-Matic to a Borg Warner T-10. I've got everything to do the conversion. I plan to to use a hydraulic clutch set up from Modern Driveline instead of the stock Z bar.

My question to all of you is, I'm looking for a good engine machine shop, I'll go as far as Tacoma/Seattle for a good shop. I'm not in a super hurry, I'd rather wait and have it done right than somebody rush through it.

I also need my stock steering box rebuilt. I found a place called Red Head Steering Gears in Auburn. I was wondering if anyone has used them or if there is another option out there.

TIA. Steve Kunick
