Default Where to get pistons flycut?

I have some LQ9 pistons that are going into my 6.0, Im running the TREX cam and I have the pistons already out of the engine and I need to find someone who can fly cut them for me or somewhere I can send them. If there is somewhere I can take them locally that would be great. If you have a recommendation or someone here can do it, please post a price, im also looking to see how much this will cost me, hoping it doesnt cost too much, thanks.

Would I need to tell them the camshaft specs Im using and the LS1 heads im using are getting .020 mill? Do you recommend any machine shop or just a shop who has experience with LS1 engines?

Any sponsors here I could send the pistons too and have them done at a good price? I heard that itll cost around $8-$12 ea piston.

Ill be using:

LQ9 MLS Stock Gaskets
TREX Cam V.2 (242/248 - .608/.612 - 110 lsa)
LS7 Lifters
PRC Dual Valve Springs
241 LS1 Castings w/ .020 Mill


Anyone know the depths needed? I only wanna send to a shop with LSx experience.
