John Edwards


John is an amazing machinist who actually wrote the book on how to re-build
engines.  John is also famous for his YouTube videos under the name of
"fiatnutz" where he showcases some the innovative methods he had developed
over the years.
Additionally he has developed a custom bee-hive valve spring for use on
Spitfire race engines.  I have them on one of my heads and he can put them
on you GT6 head as well.

Some videos for Triumphs:

Looking for recommendations for machine work for a GT6 engine. Just typical
rebuild work; clean the block, check the crank bore and align bore if
needed, turn the crank, balance, etc, etc. Prefer the So. Bay, Redondo,
Torrance area or possibly Long Beach.

TIA,
Kurt Oblinger
