Default can anyone recomend a reputable diesel shop?

I would like to take my truck in to a "good" diesel shop around the Mississippi and louisiana area. I would go up around the memphis tn area too. I am just having a hard time locating one i could trust with the things i want done to my truck.

well i want my pump timing set at 15.5*(the right way. with out worrin about it slippin or bein off) also would have them go ahead and install the 3k gov kit. I can do the rest like fuel plate afc tuning ect....and could do the timing and the gov kit but would have to buy the tools to do it and still would have to do the work myself and would rather just have a profesional do the timing anyways....

Two shops not far from you in Lebonan,PA are as follows...

Zimmeys Automotive in Lebanon,PA and they are located at the following address....

Zimmey's Automotive (717) 867-1644
564 Horseshoe Pike
Lebanon, PA 17042

Ask for Delton Sensig if you go there he is the man with the plan.

The other is as follows...

East Coast Diesel Performance.... Diesel trucks, engine rebuilding. Jonestown, PA.

East Coast Diesel
529 Shirksville Road
Jonestown, PA 17038

Ladell and Lamar are two of the areas top notch Cummins power men and do work on all types of diesels.The can handle all area from the new owner to the all out competiton owner.

Both shops can work on almost any diesel powerplant you have and they both are very visible at local pulling events with their trucks and their customers trucks.

Another great shop if you do not mind driving a bit and he specializes in Common Rail HP is Lloyd Mill's Mid-Atlantic Diesel Performance down in Mt Airy,MD.Lloyd has built some of the strongest running CR's around and can also handle you needs or desires..

Home

Hope that helps some.....Andy
