    Engine rebuilder in Syd

    Any recommendations for a engine rebuilder in Sydney? Motor in question is a 1FZ-FE out of a Landcruiser. Its lost some compression on cylinder one.

    Just want a decent job done as I'll be keeping the car probably for a long time yet.

    Spoke to Eddy and Rob today and seem like a great father and son team to deal with. Told him the issues Im having and he's recommending just doing the heads up.

    Has low compression on cyl 1 although leakdown test shows cyl 1 and cyl 4 at 40 - 60%.

    He's of the opinion the heads normally go (worse due to being on LPG) and the bottom ends dont really require any work?
