Machine shop Help Delaware

Hey guys. I have a 87 302 and a 73 351w I am ready to send to the machine shop.

I want to get them cleaned, sonic tested, magnafluxed, ext.

The 302 is going in a volvo and I will be doing a mild build while the 351 will be getting a 408 stroker kit. (not sure from where yet).

My question is I need to find a good machine shop in my area (wilmington DE.)

Does anyone in the area know of someone good?

I hear there is someone good in newport but i do not know his name?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Go to or call a few local auto repair and parts places (NAPA, Carquest etc.) and ask them who they use for that kinda stuff. Ask the service manager of the repair shops, they have probably dealt with a few local machinists and know who's best
