Most of the indies here are as bad as the dealers nowadays. You drive into a European car repair shop with your 911 and you can see the dollar signs $$$$ rolling in their eyes. Well anyway kudos to you.

Hi,
I agree with you! I waited about 12 months and did some extensive research including Beck in AZ and some east coast shops. In the end I asked a top machine shop here in SoCal (Competition Engineering, Walt is an old friend) he recommended a shop in the South Bay, happy to share if you are interested, and the motor is apart, in my wagon to be taken to CE for the machine work. Owner is on a Porsche IMSA pit crew and very familiar with 964s, worked with Redline in Santa Monica when Pete Zimmerman owned it. I won't have a final price till everything is back from CE, may need new P&Cs but so far everything has been ultra professional and thrifty on my behalf. Going stock.
