Default Shop for C7 Engine Build

I'll keep it short and sweet. Looking to build my engine in the next few months. Car currently has an A&A Si kit with meth. Looking to forge the bottom end and add a cam. Who you guys using/recommend in the NorCal area? I'll even consider SoCal if I have too.

DLRE
Dustin Lee Racing Engines, Lancaster CA .
He is not quick, ( one man shop ) but he builds Awesome LS & LT Engines.
Even some COPO Engines.
He built my custom 396" LSX.
Definitely worth a conversation if you want to stay in the State.

I know you said Cali, but hit up MVP@The Race Engine Shop. Hes knows his **** and is a good dude. Also a sponsor! He has built motors for a lot of forum members over the years and will be building mine when the time comes.

LME
Late model engines
they built my engine but they are located in Texas. One of the best shops imo. Straightforward about build time and super professional. You can pm me if you have any questions and I can try to help you out

Ditos Motors in S. San Francisco and have Matt Gower do the build. He's with gptuning and is an authority on chevy mods of all kinds. gpxtuning@gmail.com he's got a wait list.

He did my headers, tune and flex fuel conversion kit. I've known him for 25 years.

Lol, I emailed Matt, he told me to go to LME I believe. He tuned my 10 CTSV. Ryne from CMS referred me to Caliber Customs which isn’t too far from me. Their TT Vette held the 1/2 mile mph record for a bit. I’ve been talking to them, they seem to know their stuff.
