Take a look around over at www.shovelhead.us. They guy who did my top end is no longer there because he did something stoopid, but I am sure they can point you in the right direction.

Stay very far away from Dragon Machine.
What all do you need done? Aside from machining, until you're in the bottom end it's all pretty easy to do yourself.
