[ShoGuy93]

Thats right. I was wanting to see who in the area could weld my cams on my v8 sho that i will be buying tommorow. Chuck you still alive? I'll help out as much as i can. I just don't know any body in the indy area that knows any thing about the v8 sho motor. And that i trust! LOL. I really don't know much about the v8 motor either. But i want to learn. I know the gen 2 motor like the back of my hand Like i said i will help out as much as i can. And i will buy a case of beer if that helps any

Chuck welded the cams in my old SHO four years ago - I would NOT recommend him. He welded the main drive gear to the cam (which he wasn't supposed to do), but the weld was such a horrible cold weld that I was still able to unbolt the gear and pop it right off the cam.

Brad Swinford no longer lives in Lafayette Indiana. I think he moved out east and sold his car.

I think Eric will be the closest welder.

I have always taken the cams out for welding. Mainly because I have had cam failed engines that needed head work.

Cost can be all over the place. Kind of a sticky question to ask on forum. Prices and opinions vary, to be very sure.

Can't PM you, either.

Swinford Engineering (II)

Brad Swinford no longer lives in Lafayette Indiana. (know fact)

I think he moved out east and sold his car. (CT or MA??)

I think Eric Lehmann (E1 v2) will be the closest welder.


Edit: Brad Swinford's name on this forum is SHOBRAD. He is listed as the former owner of Swinford Engineering.

His home town is listed as New Milford, CT.

How to get to know your SHO V8? Grab a copy of Ford Taurus Sable service
manual with the SHO supplement and study as you tear into your engine. If you have any mechanical savy you will learn quickly. Good luck!!!

I realize that this thread is over a year and a half old, but I just picked up a blk 98 with 76k miles this last weekend and need to get the cams welded. I am in lafayette, IN. Is Eric in Lombard still doing this? I already checked out the V8SHO site and everything seems outdated and old. Are people still even doin this?
