Cylinder rebuilders in Central Florida.
Hi:
I have a six cylinder Cont. that had five cylinders 'fail' a compression test.
The engine has about 1200 Hours since new.
Thinking of maybe Don George in Orlando.
Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks, Don

Zephyr Engines at Zephyrhills do some very nice work.

Moore Performance
I have been very happy with Moore Performance in Edgewater, FL. (just south of Daytona Beach).
Here is a link to their Trade-a-Plane ad. It has phone numbers and email.
http://www.trade-a-plane.com/company-search?id=66593
I don't think they have a website.

An interesting facet of this question is which shops actually do the machine work versus taking your parts and sending them to a "big cylinder shop" or "big crankcase shop" or whatever.

JB is absolutely your man. He does a lot of conti work.
http://www.jbaircraftengines.com/
He just expanded his shop and just did my 6 cylinder top to bottom. He does everything from turbos, kit engines, to full overhauls of various engine types. His shop is a thing of beauty. A place where you want your engine built. And when you meet him, he is a guy you want working on your engine. |
