Good shop in the Miramar area

I'm trying to find a good shop in the Miramar FL area. I just got a call from my nephew down there who's having some trouble with his 99TA. He said the rearend is whining pretty good and unfortnately he's not able to work on the car. Normally I'd chalk it up to gear whine after some abuse, but the car is bone stock and not run hard.
Any info is appreciated.

Call Dan Dorado, he is a former GM master tech who opened his own shop. He is in Pompano (not far from Miramar at all). He does all of our forged LS1's and knows FBodies inside/out...

Dan: 954-445-6585, tell him Jesse sent you.

I actually took a driveshaft to broward powertrain about a year ago to get it checked because I was having vibrations... and the guy spun it with me right there and assured me it was fine. Put it back on the car...tried other things to fix the vibrations...still couldnt find the prob. I ended up taking the driveshaft somewhere else and they told me the driveshaft was out of balance...that was it afterall. I dunno if I trust Brow PT 2 much
