Default looking for help near orlando

Can anybody recommend a repair shop or mechanic or members with experience with the lt1 fbodies? Most places Ive found wont touch It or are really expensive. Ive been doing work to it myself but limited on knowledge and tools. I have a 1993 formula a4 with bolt ons giving me a hard time.......

You can try Dynasty Auto, 407-896-8700. I know the owner (Chi) and lead tech (Bill) from autocrossing. It's where I take my car for any maintenance or service I don't want to perform myself. They are about a block away from the intersection of Colonial & Semoran.
