Default Looking for a shop in the Bay Area

Looking for a shop the the Bay Area to help me complete my RX7/LS1 conversion.

I have the motor in and running but need a shop to help me get all the smog **** working correctly and some wiring straightend out that I am having issues with.

Anyone know of a good shop that could do the job?

My email is Blazinlow@gmail.com

Thanks
