Marti at Slowboy is hosting a BBQ meet & greet at his shop this coming Sunday! They'll have drinks, hot dogs, burgers, the usual stuff, so no one needs to bring anything.

You can almost consider this shop as a one stop shop for everything as they have all the machine work and can do header/exhaust/pipe fabrication, engine builds and tear downs, port/polishing, custom head work, powder coating, ceramic coating, etc...

And their shop was very big compared to the prior performance shops I've been to as well.

Here are my pics of the shop inside:


Lots of fabrication machines


Custom welded hand made manifolds for EVO's


stock VQ block to be rebuilt into a race VQ


Clean Port and polish job




Lots of fabrication machines makes building engines here a snap


Powder coating? Ceramic coating? They do that here too...


Clean custom headwork done...




When I asked about this machine and how it relates to building engines they quickly hushed me and said that this machine was too top secret for even me to know what it exactly does...


Lots of attendees came to check out the shop...






I spy APS twin turbo with built block in here...














Here's Black Betty and her big snail in her engine bay
