Good LS machine shop in DFW?

Anyone know of a good machine shop in the arlington area that can machine a 6.0L block for me at a reasonable rate? Im sure most machine shops would do it since its nothing out of the ordinary but I would prefer the final hone on the cylinders to be with tourqe plates and in my expirience most run of the mill shops arent setup for that.

Thanks

All machine shops ive visited all have torque plates in place for any honing and especially final hone. If not, they are just your city motor supply. LOL

Take it to Arlington Machine. Cheap, good, and quality work from them. And its close to you boss! BTW, check your posts on DFWSS.
