Engine Machine Shop in Northern VA or MD

I am trying to find a good engine machine shop in the Northern VA area (I am in Sterling). I need a shop with a crank balancer.

Any good experiences?

Thanks!

Thanks - that's a bit of a haul for me though.

Anyone else?

Coleman Bros is no longer in business, haven't been for a number of years now. Bill moved the machine shop to his house and does work for friends only. Autofab Race Cars is in that shop now. I am a machinist, my shop is in Hanover, MD. If you'd like some more info, PM me.
