Fastech(a sponser) outsources their machine work to a shop outside of the metroplex. I'd call Sean up when the sun rises a good bit and ask him about it. He'll take care of you!! Otherwise call the fella's @ RPM Motorsports(do a web search, not a sponser). They might know someone.

I would recomend Hans Feustel. They built the motor in our old Pro 5.0 car. But if you don't want to spend alot, Charles Machine shop in Arlington also does alot of our motors.

Arlington Machine in arlington has been great to me, USA Motorsports sends all of their stuff there, I hear lots of good things about Charles but he was a ******* to me and a friend so I refuse to go back, a friend of mine got his block back and couldnt get his cam in because the bearings were not correct in the block but charles fixed it for him.
