Hey man, welcome to the board. Where at in Covina you located? I also live in Covina.

I go to Don Lee in Rancho Cucamongo, not 626, but worth the drive. Its only like 15-20 mins away. They did my H/C, headers, etc. in one day.

Good luck finding someone who works on LT1's... Most people are lazy and turn you away. When I first moved out here, I did heads and cam on a guy's (now he's a friend) car for some cash.

Found work and wasn't doing side jobs anymore but everyone with an LT1 who knew he got work done on his car said the same thing, "Who in the heck did you u get to work on it?!?!"

I ended up driving as far as San Diego to help some people out who had gotten their LT1's messed up by idiots... Anyways, if you can't find someone reliable PM me and maybe I can just lend a hand or something...
