Might want to consider Abicus in Va. Beach. I haven't heard of any shops in richmond. Most are in tidewater.

Whats wrong with your SS?

Check out www.tidewaterracing.com, get on there and ask around. They are all friendly and would be able to help you with whatever is wrong.

Yes, we do it out of our tint shop on weekends. We don't have a lift yet, but it is in our future. Slyws6 works with my husband on the cam & heads install, they are really good at what they do!
