Need a Shop to do my Cams. Help!

Hey guys,

I need your help in picking a trust-worthy shop to do my cams, springs, and head studs. So far my top two choices are Performance Autowerks in Plainfield(Dave is one of the most meticulous guys that has ever worked on my car) or Strictly Modified.

Let me now the experiences you guys had with different shops, whether its good or bad.

Thanks in advance,

Eugene
