 Re: performance v twin
I sent him a 36 PD to have the 45 internals put in about 5 years ago and was very happy with the outcome.

 Re: performance v twin
That's correct. That's parts and labor out the door.

 Re: performance v twin
I had to send a 45 back to them for warranty work, mounted it up and the loud 'CLUNK' when we started it caused it to be sent it back a second time (this wasn't the original problem). Took months to get it back and when they did ship it back, it was just bare bolted to a crate. It was shipped with oil in it (oil was everywhere). Seemed like they weren't too interested in the warranty work.

 Re: performance v twin
Al does very good work and is easy to deal with. For those of you that don't live close to here and have never been to his shop, he has a nice place.

 Re: performance v twin
I've called him a couple times looking for an intake and some other parts. He told me to call Marshmellow??

 Re: performance v twin
I think he shims the valve springs as well. Not 100%
