Default Help, who to install????

My gosh, I never thought I'd have a problem finding someone to install my heads and cam, and intake when it gets here.

Noone I've called seems to froggy to jump into an LS1, even my "buddies" at the local dealership, who claimed back in the summer they were all for it, now seem to have changed their minds.

Even the Venerable god's of mustang racing and late model performance, Bennett Racing turned down the job.

I don't know what to do.

I am thinking about just getting the motor out of the car and leaving it sitting while our engine guys does the installs. He said he was all for it, he would just need the torque specs for the heads.

Any help guys???

I'd really like to keep it pretty close to home.

Bennett is 2 hours away, and that's about as far as I would really like to go.

Or does anybody have any other ideas for different plan of action.

Thanks in advance
Taco

My friend you may have to make a loooonger trek just to make sure it gets done right.Dont get me wrong I am not saying your friend isnt capable but better safe than sorry you know.That is just me though I always want someone who has been through the car to work on it so they know whats where and know how to take everything off and most importantly put it back together.
