I used a machine shop in Burlington, IA. Obviously 3 hour+ drive isn't going to work. You could ask the local circle track racers. They should be able to provide you a decent shop.

Re: Looking for good machine shop in IL

Id do a drive if its worth it since the only one I know of in town is Kennedy's Machine which one of the engine I pulled and rebuilt had a crank done by them and it looked like crap so I dont want to use them. Since I am 16 and wont have my license tell December I will do the drive if its not bad on price and well worth it. And Thank You for your response.
