Blown head gasket - DFW shop recommendation
Can anyone recommend a good engine shop in the DFW area for some top end work? I have done my own work and maintenance so I don't have a go-to-guy. This one it out of my comfort zone.
I have a 2017 Road Glide Special with about 38k miles. It has a Red Shift 468 cam and PV4 tuner. Recently it developed a leak and it looks more and more like it is going to be the front head gasket. Some other threads with pics of blown head gaskets appear very similar to what I am seeing on mine. There is oil seeping out around the front cylinder below the oil manifold. I replaced the oil manifold O rings and cleaned it up but there is still fresh oil seeping after a short ride.
I have tried reading reviews and a couple places appear to be solid but first hand accounts are always better than google reviews!

After some discussion with my decision maker, I think I am leaning towards taking a road trip to Appleton, WI to Fuel Moto for a 124" top end....
