Trusted machine shops in Sacramento area?
Hey, Ive run into a dilema that for as many machines shops I know non of them trully know Gen3/Gen4 motors and how to correctly machine them. I was hoping someone could give a recommendation (preferably a shop youve dealt with) that is equipt and knowledgable to machine a gen3 block. Im looking for a bore and hone with a torque plate and the shops I talked to said they dont have torque plates for the motor and/or have never done it.
More or less I am willing to drive 100 miles at most to drop my block off to be machined for my turbo prepped motor.
If you can shoot me in a certain direction I would appreciate it very much, thanks.

Torque plates are mandatory if you want the engine built correctly on these late gens.... As for not having them, Motor Warehouse is a supplier for all the local machine shops in Sac Town. Any-one can rent the torque plate through them, but most don't want to pay the money to do it.
I've heard Rex Hutchinson has built a few for FFP. I have no experiance from them, and Have heard mixed reviews, but I know a couple people with late engines that swear by them...
Hope this helps!
