Default Good engine shop near Fort Worth

I've got a 06 LQ4 and some 317 head that I need cleaned up. Any of you guys have an engine shop that you can recomend? I live in north Fort Worth around Western Center and Beach. My neighbor suggested Accurate Engine near down. I've called them and they seem to be pretty cheap. I just wanted to see what you guys have to say.

Len-Mar is a huge shop/ group of shops. I haven't heard any bad things from them

I have a buddy that swears by American Machining Services in downtown Ft. Worth off 7th st or something. He had an LS1 and an LS3 done there. Both motors ran like a raped ape!

Wes Machine Shop, off Beach St. and just north of 121. Hole in the wall looking place but the guy had plenty of knowledge about LS motors and after talking to him in person for a bit I had no problem leaving my parts there.

I have used accurate engines on 3 builds now and so far they have been great to deal with. Guys name is Rick and knows his stuff. Currently building a 6.0 with a rearmount and they did all the machine work on the block.
