Machine Work

So admitidly I don't have a lot of money laying around. I have a 3.2 engine completely disassembled and am going to have to start finding a machinist. I am planning on sending out the heads, pistons and cylinders and cam housings with the rockers and cams to a porsche specialist. Can I have a local machinist who works on a lot of american engines check and inspect my case, crank, and some of the other non-special parts. I am just trying to avoid having to ship all that weight back and forth from southern colorado to california and back. If there were a problem with the case or the crank ect I would be sure that it was sent to a professional with experience working on 911's. What are your thoughts on this? The local machinist has a pretty good reputation so I feel like he can accurately measure and inspect parts.
