Hey everyone, I am looking for some advice on reputable machine shops. I am building a VG30ET for a Datsun pickup (sleeper style) and have recently moved a few hours east of El Paso,TX. I am looking for a machine shop to do some engine work for me. Primary goal is to get the engine bored and crosshatch honing. I also would like to get the crank balanced. Does anyone have any suggestions for a machine shop they would recommend? I am open to machine shops in the El Paso, San Antonio, or Austin area. I appreciate the advice in advance!

it is getting tough around here to find a machine shop for anything auto/ passenger car anymore
with the deckless motors that came in around 2000, boring , milling the head are a thing of the past or are very specialized .
some so hard to work on it is too $$$ to be worth it
many shops are doing diesels fleet work and have banned a occasional vintage car head or engine rework , especially from an individual ,which is what the one I like to use did
