Default Sterling

Was thinking about rebuilds on my old Bulldogs and considering Sterling. How is the new ownership and is the qualify as it was when D'Annabell owned it?

Love

I'd look up Frank Mcomas from Scorpion Enterprise, he builds lots of high end Supercat race engines. He's located in Livonia Michigan. Has done my engines throughout the years

The new owner is an OSO member and introduced himself in the thread below. Have not heard anything negative since the change.

Following them on social media and it's hard not to give them my business because they sure seem to be doing everything right and more, on top of Sterling already being a good company.

Face has changed at Sterling but the guys turning the wrenches doing the work is the same team. Big Farmers Skater is a beast, sounds like he's on to something too.

Those motors are about as basic as you can get for a BBC, dont know why you'd have to go to a high end shop to get them done when a lot of other shops can to it in probably half the time.....jmo..........no slam on Sterling....
