    Portland Shop Recommendations

    I have come to the point in my build that I want it done and I don't have any time or the correct knowledge to be able to finish it. The engine runs, but poorly, there is a posable oil leak towards the top of the timing case and the transmission is probably leaking too. I am looking for a shop in the Portland area that has the knowledge and capability to be able to help me finish my project. Along with trying to make the car run smoothly, I a looking to an engine refresh, weld on garagistic's front subframe reinforcement kit, e46 steering rack conversion and add a new exhaust kit. The engine is an s50 with a Getrag transmission. the list that I have so far for the engine refresh, are the folowing: (any other ideas for an engine refresh is very helpful.)

    head gasket:

    Belts

    timing chains and tensioners

    all hoses

    clean injectors + new o-rings and maybe pintle caps

    thermostat housing (w/metal one)

    oil check valve

    main bearings

    rod bearings

    piston rings
