One of the best Type IV guy's around, unfortunately mostly VW's but worth a visit.
He also has a fantastic VW junkyard Dicks Autohaus 210 Centreville Rd Wye Mills, MD , MD 21679 (410) 827-6501

I've used CGM in Millersville a few times but not in a couple years. Not a Porsche shop but Burt is a fair guy.

Very good and reasonable, if he's still in business.

I used Edward's machine in Timonium to polish several 911 crankshafts over the years, it's been a while so I'm not sure if he's still there or not. Did a great job and was reasonable. I have never used him for grinding but whomever you chose for that should have a way to re-nitride the journals afterwards, assuming type 4 cranks are hardness treated like 911 cranks out of the factory.
