Default valve drop measurement in indy

Does anyone know of a shop that could take this measurement for me? Heads are off the car.

Thanks, went to their webpage and it appears they do a lot of work on Mopar stuff. I dropped them an e-mail. I'll give them a call tomorrow and see what they say.

Gave them a call, guy was less than helpful. Basically told me to get my own dial caliper and measure it myself. I asked if they could clean up the heads and he asked what kind were they. I told him they were GM 5.3 heads, and he said what the hell is that? He said he'd never heard of a 5.3 engine! I don't claim to be an expert on this stuff but damn I was trying to give them some business.

Sorry to hear they blew you off like that. Automotive specialist in Noblesville did the clean up on my heads, they are resonable too.
