Default Reputable Engine Shops in SC.

I recently spun a bearing in my 97 Coupe and I will have the motor pulled out tomorrow. Just seeing if anyone knows of a good engine shop that is familiar with LSx engines.
Thanks
Joshua

Might give Mike Yeager @ East Coast Performance in Greenville a shout. He's one of our forum vendors who is probably very familiar with machine shops, etc in the Greenville/Spartanburg area.

Forum member Clif Dunaway (forum name: "clif"), also from the Greenville area, has had some serious work done on his C5 and might give you his input as well.
