Re: tucson az
I took mine to Doc's Engine on Golf links and Craycroft behind the McDonald's. I didn't have all the money when i dropped off my 350 block but they where cool with me dropping it off anyway and I told them that they could take their sweet time. However they did give me the option to have the job done quickly. They didn't charge me much and the service was great. My only advice is that you not buy any parts from machine shops because they have crazy mark up. Just get the machine work done and get out of there. Other wise you should be cool.
I have heard alot of bad things about machine works over on the west side but that was years ago so i don't know about that.
