Among many wonderful presents I received were a set of 4 perfectly re manufactured slotted rotors from my BIL who runs a machine shop.

Who says slotteds cannot be turned? I hear it a lot here and elsewhere.

So where does he live and how much does he charge?

He runs a 3rd generation shop in Florida. An absolute FANATIC, his main biz is high end engine builds for hot rods. Just put together a GIANT Chevy Stroker that was 20 grand just for the crate motor, then 15 grand for machine work! It should be 850 HP on pump gas.

I wish you guys could see his shop, it's immaculate, he even has a hospital clean room for assembly!

Fisch, I don't pay as he's my BIL and I take him to track events and get him seat time in very fast cars, but he said it was worth about 100 bucks for all 4. 3 cuts of the smallest possible amount and almost ten minutes each just setting them up on the lathe for utter perfection. Hand cross-sanded on the lathe then oiled and wrapped in plastic for long term storage!
