Looking for a good machine shop

I had some problems with the engine I just built and need to send it back to get machined, but I don't really know of any good shops around here. I live near Lawton, OK but I'm willing to drive to get this done correctly. So I'm just curious if anyone knows of a reputable shop in TX or OK that can machine and assemble a short block? Thanks

Re: Looking for a good machine shop

there is a shop in sherman tx (texoma)... his name is bill spence i believe, and i hear he does a lot of great engines, but the best thing to do is go up to your local parts store (oreilly, autozone, napa), or random engine/muffler shops around town and ask who is the best, no need to drive 200 miles if there is a good one in town.
