Trusted shop that can do headbolts in my area? North Georgia.
Does anyone have any trusted shops that you know can pull off a one-at-a-time headbolt swap in the northern Georgia area?
Specifically the north of Atlanta belt - Marietta, Roswell, Alpharetta, Norcross, Canton, etc...
Thanks!
And feel free to tell me to move this post to another forum if its necessary. the regional forums look like deadzones so I went with here.

Buckhead Import Performance has done a lot of my work in the past but when i talked to Jason about doing mine one at a time he said they'd pass. They do the headbolts all the time but they remove heads to do inspection, replace gaskets and then the headbolts.....and he said that they ALWAYS pull the engine from the car to do it, lowest he said they could go on the job was $6k, and as much as i love Jason and the guys that's when i decided to just do it myself

I'm curious what they'll charge. I tried local independent shops in Maryland and no one wanted to touch it. The local dealer quoted me $3200 over the phone but I don't think that includes the lifter buckets.

He replaced my head bolt one by one two weeks ago. The price was more than fair.
I'm from north east Georgia and did my research. He has/had some outstanding builds going through his shop. The price was more than fair
He repaired more than 13 of our engines with the head bolt failure.

ok, thanks - the other shops I've found so far have said no - They want to pull the heads. I asked them how much and they said about $5000.00. I was tempted to ask them how much they would make if I took it somewhere else that would do one-by-one
I'm going to call Blue Ridge.
Much appreciated.
