Default new to atlanta area, need a fbody shop

I have a 98 Camaro, and need to rebuild the t56 tranny. Im looking to go ahead and upgrade the suspension, and install an adjustable torque arm bar. Looking for suggestions, and a good shop that I can trust.
I also just bought a set of 2002 z06 heads with 6k miles on them. Im planning on duying a z06 cam, and a FAST instake with an 85mm. I also would like to install a set of long tube headers. I live in an area where there are no emissions testing, so Cats can be deleted, O2 sensors deleted, and EGR deleted. After all that I will need a major tune, and with 98 LS1, very few options.


If anyone knows of a shop, or a good mechanic, please let me know.

Default Vengeance isn't the only shop around...

edit:

Atlanta Performance & Fabrication is in Acworth - www.atlpf.com

And if you want an all go no show shop, there are probably countless gear heads in the area that can turn a good wrench... For example, I ran across a great guy in Marietta... small shop, but he knows his **** and may save you some money... His name is Jeff and you can reach him at 770.499.9804... He has built a few LS1 cars and countless others... He has a 1,900 hp truck that he races... damn thing leaves on the bumper...

Have fun!
