So cal machine shops

Does anyone know of a good machine shop in the Inland empire area that can bore my 96 to a 103-107? Hopefully a shop that does harley cylinders. Looking for recommendations from guys who have had work done. Thanks.

Dave Mackie in Ventura should be able to do it. Might be a bit of a drive but he'll do it right.

Why are you stuck on local machinists? There's a good handful right here to have record-setting performance under their belts when it comes to modifying Harley engines. Just box em' up and really get your money's worth.

The only time I had a positive local machinist was when I lived in Sheboygan WI and Darkhorse Crankworks was 15 miles away for three separate crankshaft rebuilds.
