neweraperformanceparts.com did mine. I can't compare it but they did a good job, also was inexpensive. but you have to ship it in and wait a couple weeks for it.

How close are you to thunder? that might be easiest for you.
Locals we take in the off in the parking lot (hot). Port them, and there back on your car (no added labor). In under a hour, normally.

I had mine done from thunder racing. They have a really quick response time and you don't have to send them a core.
