Default new member needs help with driveability problem

Hello

I have a 9c1 caprice 1995
that is having some driveability problems.

I need to know of mechanics or shops in and around the milford, ma
area that are experienced with LT1 and the opti-spark.

I want to get it replaced but I am trying to find a shop that has seen it before, and I figured this would be a good place to ask.

I have had driveability problems before, due to a broken cat (inside the material was dislodged) and am about to get it replaced to see if this improves the problem.

But I know for a fact that I have weeping oil coming down from the bootom of the Opt, that I am going to have to get new seals and have all of the
stuff taken off in front of it... car has 94K on it.. so I figure get a new opti

Like I said, I am looking for a good shop that is experienced in Chevy Lt1's

Anybody have any shops they would recommend, second to a dealer?

Thanks i appreciate it

BW
