They did a rebuild, as well as the r & r, on my 85 Westy Waterboxer 2 years
ago.  I was very happy with their work.  They are very knowledgeable, take
time to answer your questions, and are reasonably priced.  In fact, I have
an 80 Westy air-cooled I plan to have them do this summer.

I have no connection with them, just a satisfied customer...

Take care...Bob Marshburn
