Default Engine Rebuild - Local shop

My buddy blew his LT1 last night, the specifics of I'm not entirely sure. Anyways, where can I find a good f-body shop in LA to do the rebuild? Any of you local guys know?

Thanks!

Look for a company that builds Stock/Super Stock motors in your area. A lot of those guys build performance motors too. You can pretty much guarantee that the machine work will be spot on.
