Looking for a good machine shop Denver, CO. area?

I have 85' 250 460 4sd 4x4. I need to get the engine worked on. Everything that goes into a good rebuild. Keeping power in the mid-range. Little bit of over kill on strengh of parts. Just to keep it reliable for a long time.

Also it might get you connected with other ford truck guys in your area that can help you with stuff like this.

It's a little way out of Denver but I've had great luck with "Jim's Automotive Machine" up near Greeley (he's actually in Gill). Between myself and my dad we've probably had 2 dozen engines built by him over the years and have never a problem.
