Did you check the sponsor section, you can search by state. Tick Performance comes to mind.

What this guy said^^^ Go to ls1howto and read through it a cuple times. There are a cuple things not exactly right on there site, but mostly very good information. Than search on here for awhile on how to do the valve adjustments and springs and such and you will be good to tackle it on your own. Good luck!

Is there anybody who lives at your house with 2 hands? But if you really dont want to tick is going to be your best bet. They are great to work with.
