Machine shops in Southern Maine ?

Does any one know a machine shop that can mill the 1 1/8" barbs on this transmission cooler down to 1" ? I believe Mainesail recommended one once but I don't recall the name.

My engine raw water cooling system uses 1" hoses. I tried to find fittings to get from 1" to 1 1/8" and back but it adds a number of components that I'd rather avoid. I spoke with the manufacturer and they said to mill down the barbs.

Thanks,
Max
