Default Reputable Machine Shop in San Diego?

This is my first post so please cut me some slack.

I am looking for a reputable machine shop in San Diego to get some bottom end and head work done on my D16Z6.

I found the following threads in the archive:
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=855810
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=349293

Which mentioned the following shops:
Precision Head Service
(619) 286-0532
6233 University Ave
San Diego, CA 92115

Accurate Automotive Machine
(619) 443-3935 8929 Gardena Way
Lakeside, CA

Has anyone used either of these and could recommend one vs. the other?

Are there any other or better shops in the area?

I spoke w/ JG up in L.A. and they seemed great, but I was hoping to find something closer...

Thanks

My friend tracked down another shop near SD:

Ed Hale Automotive
Lakeside, CA
619-443-4250

Seems like a Mom&Pop shop, but they are helpful and have pretty good prices ($100 to balance the entire bottom end), we'll see how quality the work is...
