Default Good shop for porting heads around CT?

I just put the WS6 away for the winter. I am considering pulling the Dart heads off and having them ported, from what I've read it looks like some minor head work will really wake them up.

I am located in Groton, CT. Can anyone recommend a good shop within a few hours drive for the work?

I can think of 2 places in CT if you're looking for a local to do it, but if you're in no rush I'd send them to Greg Good, you won't see the heads for a long time because he's a perfectionist to the extreme, but the work quality is there which is what matters.

There is plenty of sponsors on here that can do them though, take your pick
