H3 Mechanics around Pittsburgh for I-5 head replacement?

I have a 2006 H3, 150K miles, that I would like to have the head removed and sent to a machine shop for overhaul, and then reinstalled. Other than paying absurd flat rate dealership rates and hours, would there be any private shops around with experience and the special tools required to do the job?

The head was replaced by GM at 76K miles, so this will be the second head removal. This head has a valve seal/guide issue and leaks oil into a cylinder if left setting over night, resulting in a smokey start up that is truly embarrassing.
