This seems to be quite a feat nowadays.

I'd also like to get an aluminum head tube faced but the bottom bracket is my main priority.

Any tips would be appreciated.
I'd check with Chuck at Pacific Coast Cycles first. He's a bearded retro-grouch, so if you go down there expecting immediate service (for him to do it right there while you wait) or ask for a discount, please don't tell him I referred you.
If Chuck is too grouchy, there's also Cyclart in Vista. The admin office isn't super fast or efficient, but Greg and the crew in the back do excellent, meticulous work.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.
