Default Looking for a machine shop

I am looking for a machine shop that will re-drill rotors to different bolt patters and enlarge the center bore for a decent price. Can anybody recommend some place?

Yeah, the best way to change the bolt radius is to drill the new holes between the old ones.

I spoke with Harris Performance and they can't do it.
They said I need to find a machine shop, because it requires an index table to do it properly.

Why don't you just buy the right rotors? Seems it would be cheaper and less hastle.
