Default Good LS machine shop?

Anyone know of a good reputable machine shop that specializes in machining LS engines that's close to Tennessee..... just purchased a iron 6.0 that's been bored .030 and I want to make sure everything is good cause I'm on a theoretical budget and I don't want to have to go thru this again. Thanks

Been through there many times on 411. That’s a long drive to use the shop I use. Have you talked to local racers? They have a good indication of who to use, and who to stay away from. Those guys stay at a machine shop more than their house.

It's all Honda people around here. The shop I usually go to does mostly gen 1 stuff and recently got started doin LS stuff so I'm sorry but not to be mean but my block is not a test dummy. I don't mind driving a little to make sure it's gonna be done right

I'd rather drop it off myself. No offense but I don't want it damaged during shipping. Thanks anyways
