Machine Shops

I asked before, but might have been the wrong topic. Does anyone know of a great machine shop in Tacoma or Seattle area. I am actually in Tacoma area. I need heads rebuilt and ported, and block bored.

I am in the Portland area and am talking to a couple of shops here. Not sure but it might be bad form to ask on this site.... The shop's I have found are called Eastco, in Gresham Or. and Bearing Services in Portland. At least they are familiar with FE's and are aware of the oil mods. I have not decided which I am going to use, they are both kind of hi in the price category, at least from what I had originally budgeted, but that may be just me.
Good luck
Tom
