Default Machine shop help

Hey looking for a shop to hone the cylinders in my motor and clean the deck and resurface and clean the block up. With reasonable prices. Local to orange county please. Any positive and negative feedback would be greatly appreciated. And if the mods are going to get all mad about this just PM me the info.

Ask Rob what he uses. Last time I was down we loaded up a orange LSX block and sent it out to his machine shop. With all the engines laying around there he has to have someone building him shortblocks...

Jim Grubbs in Valencia has my vote also. He built our 409 that sits in the shed for now. It looks awesome and the quality is top notch.
