Default Machine shop needed

Just bought a 81 FLH basket case. Prior owner took it apart to restore it never got around to putting it back together. Motor is apart right down to the cases split so its a good time to make everything right. Anyone recommend a shovel friendly machine shop in the cental florida area. Someone who'll do good work at a reasonable price?
