Does anyone know a machine shop in the area that has experience putting TimeSerts into an NSX block?

I would have thought Ben would have a "go-to" guy for this sort of thing? If he doesn't I would reach out to larry/brian@source one and see where they recommend sending it.
Ben's usual shop doesn't necessarily have experience putting TimeSerts in the NSX block, so I figured I would ask around. The more I learn about it, though, the more it seems pretty routine for a respectable machine shop.
Ah I see. Try to find a shop with experience doing it on aluminum blocks perhaps?
Yea I think that's the thing. Interestingly I was talking to Dan Benson yesterday about resleeving and he is not a fan of TimeSerts. His point is that the TimeSerts still go into aluminum so there is nothing fundamentally better. He agreed that the increased thread size is something of a factor but didn't like removing material and didn't think that with my boost level I would need it. Very nice guy.
