Default Who to do the machining on GMPP single plane manifold?

I am going to fit the GMPP single plane manifold because it will work well on my car.
I would like to get one with the machining work already done (injector bosses, fuel rails, map sensor location etc.)
Who should I speak to that can sell me a manifold already prep'd?
I want someone who will do the job quickly and reliably. I have been jerked around too much before.
If you are a sponsor and want the job please contact me.
Thanks,
Tom.

I had our in house machinist do it for me. I provided a sample LS1 intake and he did the rest ... and it didn't cost too much. Have you checked with local machine shops in your area? I doubt anyone sells a GMPP intake already prepped for EFI use. A sponsor might be willing to do it though. Good luck!

PS: Oh, if you are using a stock hood, I highly recommend you have the carb flange machined down .30" to allow for more clearance. Are you going with an elbow setup to a single blade TB or a four blade TB?

Hi Flame.
I have a mid-engined hot-rod so there's no cleanance issues.
Here are a few picks at the address below:

This one has a SBC. Mine has a LS1 and is bright orange.
Probably use 4 blade TB to start with topped with a filter or a scoop.
That will get to some cold air and leave some room under the rear cover for some future mods.
If I get a local machine shop to do the work, what parts am I going to need for them to do the job right?
Thanks for your help.
Tom.

I have one for you with everything machined in it and fuel rails mounted on it as well. It is bran new. Pm me if your interested, I'm selling because I bought a c5-r topend package that has it's own manifold.
