    St. Louis BMW engine shops?

    This is a long shot, but is anyone here from the St. Louis area? If so, know of anywhere that specializes in or had experience building BMW engines? I'm ready to have my S50 shortblock rebuilt and get the head put on.

    Thanks. :)

        I just don't trust myself to do it right. Everything I'm doing on my car I'm doing for the first time. I'm going to have the block hot tanked, replace all of the seals and bearings, and have the rotating assembly balanced.

            That's a thought. It's 2 1/2 hours from me and I sold him a Z3 engine for cheap...maybe he'd give me a break.
