    Cool outboard machine shop suggestions?

    Looking for any opinions on which machine shop to use for boring block and polishing the crank for my 1999 Johnson 225 carb outboard motor. Fine with shipping block/crank or if anyone has experience with a local shop to me. I'm about an hour north of Pittsburgh, PA.
