I hear ya, It took me years and years to find a good one. Happened to stumble across a guy that is a one man shop and will do what I ask him for to the letter. he's not the cheapest, but by far not the most expensive either. He is the reason my engines I build, to both use and sell, are high quality and perform the way they do. I even bought him torque plates to use just for my stuff.
I'd say give the guy a whirl and see how he works out for you. I find the best way to keep a machinist honest and quality high is to double check him using the same intruments he uses. lol.
