I'm looking for local-ish places to farm out some work for an engine rebuild for the miata. I need to get the block bored and decked, and the head decked, and have the tested and if necessary a little refresh work done on it. I've contacted OPM so far, as I know they have experience with Miatas through the standard Spec Miazda cars, but I'm wondering if anyone's had any experience with them. I've been waiting for a quote from them 'within the hour' since about 2:00pm yesterday. I gave them a call and got another 'within the hour' answer. I'm just starting to get a little concerned that the work I'm having done will also be done 'within the week' if you know what I mean. If anyone has any direct experience with them, I'd really appreciate any words of reassurance or, if I need to turn and run, go ahead and let me know.

Thanks!

Andrew:

John Swain just ad his motor completely redone by OPM. I'd contact him for an opinion.

We have been dealing with OPM for years, and have never had anything but positive experiences dealing with them. Keep in mind they are a very busy race shop, so you may need to be patient as they have a lot going on.

Thanks, I'll have to see about getting in touch with John. Is he on the Solo Atlanta forums? What's his user name?
