Machine shop needed central or southern NJ area

My C230 is just about to turn 300,000 miles but the head gasket appears to be leaking. Coolant was disappearing with no visible signs of leakage. I pulled the plugs and number 4 had some white crystal like stuff on it. I picked up a block tester and did the test and sure enough there was hydrocarbons coming through the coolant. My next step is to pull the head off and send it out to a machine shop and have it checked for any cracks and then skimmed. Does anyone know of a machine shop in the central or southern NJ area that can do this kind of work on a Mercedes?
