    I got mine done at Ellsworth Machine Shop in Mountain View. They do a lot of local work for other people around here. They are really busy, so you gotta get your stuff in the queue!

    TST just built my engine. Hasselgren Engineering in Berkeley did my head, and they do the blocks for my shop. They are not cheap, but they are very good.
