NorCal shops for engine builds?

I'm possibly looking to have my engine built before I decide on what FI to go with. Anyone have any experience or know of the shops that offer engine builds for the FA20? I know there's a ton in SoCal... Only one I know of up here so far is Equilibrium Tuning in Fairfield.

What are you planning to do? 500hp goal? 10 second car?

I'm fairly sure the only shop in the Northbay Area that has built an FA20(and successfully) is @Elite Performance Give them a call, I'm sure they'd be happy to help

As Neal (The Racer's Line) suggested, I would contact @Elite Performance. They have rebuilt FA20s and installed/dyno tuned multiple aftermarket FI systems.
