machine shop in KC area

Hey guys, got my 455 out and ready to go to a machine shop. I'm in Gardner ks so looking for a machine shop in the kansas city-Lawrence area to do the block work. Who do locals use around here? thanks

It was recommended to me and I used them for my Olds 455 —
Mann Speed Speciality in Independence, Mo.

The old man used to race Olds motors in the 60’s and was even sponsored by an Oldsmobile dealership. His son’s run the shop now: Dana does the engine work and Eric does cylinder heads. You’ll often find Don Mann, the father, in the shop sitting around ready to BS with anyone willing.

x2 for Mann Speed Shop in Independence, MO.

My father; Oldsguy, and I used to live in Lee's Summit, MO. He had a 455 rebuilt by Don Mann almost 20 years ago. The 69 Delta 88 we put the 455 always ran well.
