From previous PM, he's looking for someone which can freshen the heads. I'm thinking it shouldn't be much harder then BBC valve job

Kind of thought someone would have some help for you, but guess not

Found a thread at River Daves which might be of help

I can tell you the area is in need of a reputable and qualified mechanic and builder.

Thank you all for the info.
Ive talked to a single shop in MI. They seem like they know what there doing (said by someone who does not)
There around 13K with Dyno time, Ive just had to learn the hard way to at least ask around about cost prior to just pulling the trigger on a single est.
Thanks again!

All Dodge,

THANK YOU! You hit it out of the park! I just found everything that I needed, and then some. Already have spoken with David and gave me the number for Power Boost in CA.
My Ilmor is going on a road trip! You just made my whole weekend, Thanks again for all of you help!

I gave you 2 good leads already

PM sent again. Anyways have to ask -- Your ecm was bad ?? I could have fixed that ecm for you so hopefully you did not buy new ? If you did, send me your bad ecm if you want to and to have a spare or sell it.. Just saying.

IMO sounds like alot money to get stuff done with your Ilmor. Are you saying 13 K for a top end job ? NO way if this is correct.

SR24Dave 03-10-2019 02:12 PM

I was told it was bad? After tossing parts and money at it all last year.
Then told ILMOR would re flash it.
Then told a new one was cheaper and ended up with a brand new one installed.
I told shop to save all old parts, so once I have it in hand ll send it your way!

Thank you, someone else that thinks 13k is a lot of money.

And.............yes, I was told "13K, drop boat off, they pull motor, do a Top end rebuild", dyno motor and reinstall motor in boat.
