Default Machine shop in DFW?

Can anyone recommend a machine shop in the DFW area? I need to get my block hot tanked, honed, and possibly decked.

I took my lawnmower to this shop the other day. They were just starting to get into the LS1 scene. Guy had a nice clean shop, seemed to know what he is doing...esp. with lawnmowers. Since he is not a sponsor, pm for info.

Default Machine shop

We have a full machine shop, a chassis dyno, extensive experience tuning EFI and carb engines, and 4 service bays. Xtreme Horsepower has 2 SAM certified machinists that have extensive experience with LSx engines. Some current/recent projects include a 347 forged piston NA rebuild making in excess of 400hp, a LS2 403 street engine in a 97 vette NA making 539 rwhp, a 2006 vette with our ProCharger and custom tune making 492rwhp, and a 2000 twin turbo vette that will make roughly 700 rwhp when complete with the boost below 10psi.

We are a sponsor on LS1tech.

You can call us at 817-503-8947. Ask for Chris or Arvil.
