Exclamation Lookin for a reputable shop in So.Md./ NoVa area!

Hey ya'll first time posting on here. I'm looking for some help. I live in Southern Maryland and I have been searching around for shops in my area and the Northern Virginia area to do a Head/Cam install along with a stall and 3:73's on a 02 Z28 and both places quoted me around $3500 with a tune(just for install). I may be wrong but it seems a little high to me on top of the fact that they both say that it will take about two weeks to do. Just looking for some help if anyone can recomend a shop and and roughly what it should cost. Thanks..

I'm heading up there next week so I can get a price quote for my head/ cam install and if the price is right set up an appointment. Jeff comes highly recommended. Does anyone know what time is best to go up there? This leaving messages is getting old.

when it comes to Jason of FBC, and Jeff of PSI, they both seem to be hard to get ahold of. i have never actually dealt with Jeff, but Jason is a pretty cool guy, heard nothing but good things about both.

Thanks for the help. I got ahold of Jason at FBC yesterday. Cool guy to talk with. I'm going to have them install all of the mods.
