Default good machine shop/assembly in central NC?

I'm building my 93 integra gsr for a kickass amount of boost..and need some machine work done-my dad has the motor currently close to greensboro nc...anyone know of a good shop that can install sleeves and do basic assembly close that area? The places my dad knows are just for old school muscle cars and they dont have experience with imports.

send it out too ERL, GE or any one that sleeves a lot of honda blocks. I wouldnt trust a local machine shop to do sleeves unless they do a lot of honda stuff

Finish machining and assembly is fine locally, but unless your machinist is top notch don't sleeve locally. If your machinist is top notch, expect the first two or three sleevings to be flaky.

Ya sleving is something that many of the major companies fucked up for awhile till they got it right so send it off to a company that has been doing it for years

Go ERL, or GE. Dartons actually done by Darton work pretty good, too.
