Yellow pages fella. Most towns have decent machinists or engine reconditioning specialists. We have 2 good places in our crummy town.

Conza most people recommend autosprint iirc.

Also a thread of other opinions to read through:

We'll I've rung most places near me and they don't do crank and there's one place that does but have had a few things **** up from there so don't mind sending somewhere if it was gonna be done right :)

Just big ends, the bearings are marks but can't see anything on the crank it's self just doesn't feel that smooth, would like it to be checked just for piece of mind then re ground if needed and haven't found anyone yet to do it
