Who Does DLC?
I'm considering having some engine components DLC coated. Which shops have you used and which shops would you recommend?

DLC is awesome! I have used Calico for DLC stuff before. They call it Calico - D.
Good work. Fast turn around. NOT cheap.

Nobody that does DLC is going to be cheap. I bought a set of DLC coated buckets from Muzzy back in the day for my 12. That was the fix before oversize buckets. I have also bought DLC coated wrist pins from CP before. Not sure who either of those guys farm it out to. Might be worth a phone call.

Possible these folks do now

www.camcoat.com
If you have Books a million or Borders look in the automotive section, usually on the top shelf a are a couple good publications that list a slew of coaters and sometimes profile them
Race Tech is one the other one I believe is Race Care Engineering these are both UK based magazines
