I would add Atlantic Enterprise for "normal" head work (valve jobs and twin plugging). All Bob does are heads. Reasonable prices and quick turnaround. Heads that don't need new valves (unless he has them in stock) are typically turned around in 2 days.

Jon at EBS. (http://www.ebsracing.com) Very customer freindly and experienced. He talked me through every step of the machine work he was going to perform on my case, P/Cs and rods; and continued helping me with assembly questions. He did everything but my heads and cams. I'd use him again with no questions. Quick turn around, his estimates on time were accurate and half of what Walt estimated due to backlog. He also had very good pricing, quotes were complete and accurate for everything.

Second to Jon at EBS.
Quality stuff. Quality operation. Timely and efficient. They have been around the scene, supporting Porsche D-I-Y'ers, for a long time.

My votes go to Ollies and EBS. Both top notch. Wish there was someone good here in FL. At least we have Brumos.

We need a few more choices in So Cal.
 How feasible is it to ship off heads to one of these guys to do the work on a top end rebuild for example?

I second Supertecpeformance! I just had a custom 3.0 liter built and installed this week in my '74. Could not ask for better service or more professional install... The engine is beautiful and a screamer! They back their work with a 2 year, unlimited mileage warranty too!

I couldn't have been happier with the guys that handled my machining, and component rebuilding. The company is Midwest Eurosport Racing, and they're in Bensenville, IL (western Chicago susburb). I had my heads rebuilt, case checked/cleaned, crank polished, cam towers checked/rebuilt, flywheel resurfaced, and P/C's cleaned, checked, and re-honed. They only did the work that was neccessary for a good rebuild, and if they didn't do something, they explained why. George Weathered was the guy who did all my work. Midwest Eurosport was on the local PCA recommendation list.
