I would also much rather use a stretch gauge on the rod bolts instead of a TQ Wrench, its more accurate that way.

My friend has that experience with a machine shop. Took his Modular there to get bored/honed and assembled and they didn't know what the hell they were doing, period. They couldn't even find the right bearings for it.
Gotta watch out for those "old school" guys that aren't up on the newer engines. I'd much rather take my engine to a place that specializes in LSX so that everything is done right the first time.
