I am looking for recommendations for a good VW machine shop on the Virginia peninsula (Hampton, Newport News Area). I'm going to be pulling the engine from my '69 Bug and freshening it up. I'm not looking to do a major performance build just a good 1600 or so build. So I'm thinking I may only need a line bore and possibly freshen the heads.

Thanks guys. I'll check with Frank to see what he says. I was hoping someone knew of a good shop on this side of the water but I will go to Norfolk or VA Beach if necessary to get a good job. Unfortunately, NSRacing is in northern VA and I avoid that area like the plague.

I'm still open to recommendations if anyone else has them.
