Laz at Mesa Balancing was trying to be a gentleman in not suggesting himself. He built my 540 ci motors and did a fantastic job. I would not hesitate to recommend Mesa in terms of product quality and price.
Look no further. Laz is in Miami and I heard he will have a booth at the boat show. Simply scroll back to his post and click on his name.

I was going to mention Laz, but then deleted... seeing you were only looking for opinions of the 2 builders you mentioned.
If I lived down your way, I might have used Laz to do mine.
