Machine shop/Tuner in Calgary

Hey does anyone here know of any good machine shops around calgary? I am planning on getting a set of gt40p heads ported but I don't know where to take them, also I am planning on getting a tune in the spring after I install them (due to the larger cam and all my other modifications) I know the mustang shop does it, but has anyone ever gone there? Are they pretty good to deal with or do you have any other suggestions of where to go?

Thanks
Kev

Talk to Matt Mitchell at the Mustang Shop. Hes a great guy and has been in the business for a long time. And is a Certified SCT tuner.

i have actually been talking with matt as well.

he seems to know his stuff, and when the time comes, i will most likely buy my stuff from him.
give him a call or email him. he should know a good machine shop if he cant do it there.

He doesn't and you might want to check out Western Motorsports. A friend with an 06gt has all his machining done in the Hat. I will see if I can get the name.

I've have dealt with Western Motorsports a couple of years back talk to Shannon very smart dude, very smart. But i currently only use Steeda.ca and the Mustang Shop, if your looking for anything locally in alberta give Matt a call he'll gladly help you out. Also Shannon Wall from Western will be glad to help you also. Who ever you preference is. You can't go wrong with either of the two.
