Can anyone recommend a good machine shop in Pa, especially around the York area. I came across Palmer Engines north of Harrisburg which was recommended by a friend but I was wondering where else can I go for a reasonable priced shop that does a good job. Thanks guys.

I'll second Palmer Engines, they're on 3rd street in Williamsport. Very nice guys, (Dave is the one who took care of me), and easy to talk to. Just make it *very* clear, if they are doing anything to the head, that they need to measure the valve stem height *before* machining valve seats/etc, and to return that valve stem height to the original spec afterwards. This is important if you don't want to have to re-shim the valve buckets. They overlooked this on me, but I was their first KA24DE. I'd still recommend them.
