Can anyone recommend a top notch machine shop in the Phoenix metro area to do the full block work on a 43 year old 289 to get it ready for a rebuilt - possibly to a 331 stroker? Its got 140 original miles on it so it will need the complete works. I'm in Chandler if there is anything close there. Thanks, Steve

What i was told, when looking for a machine shop, go with a Speed/performance type. They are more precise with details. I am not quite there, but ill be looking for a machine shop in the next year or so, myself.

Thanks for the leads - Is Standard Machine the one on Belmont? I think I found their website. Good advice PonyGirl - I have heard the same thing from others - go with a performance oriented shop.
