I broke a brand new kart racing engine out of the box the other night, and starting slapping the running hardware on it. There must have been a defective stud that holds the exh header on, and it snapped right off w/ next to no torque. I was ticked! When looking for a machine shop in the area to assist me, I remembered Eric Gorr is right up the street from me. I gave him a call(to which he suprisingly answered), and he told me to bring it in. When I came in he stopped what he was doing, extracted the stud while I waited, and refused to take a dime from me! He is a very cool guy...

Karting angine specialist also charge about $6-700 for a big bore/port job on a std iron cyl. I think I'm going to let EG have a crack at doing up one of these motors....

Thats pretty damn cool. Its always nice when you can find somebody that will help you out in a bind. When its time to have the lower end rebuilt on my bike its heading his way.
