does anyone know of any shops in So.Cal who knows how to build a well balanced ka24det for my s14?

preferably in the Ventura County area but am willing to take the motor further to get it done right.

help is really needed.

Not sure of their history but I think that Mike's Z Shop in Whittier, CA (Los Angeles County) would be able to do it. Give them a call, I personally have had no business with them but was about to when I was going to start working on a 280. I dropped the project though so never needed their services.

My uncle is a VW restorer and recommends them
