I use a garage that has a couple of mechanics with years of GM experience for things I'm not comfortable doing myself.

2023 C4 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
I agree that it is a "Chevy 350". But nothing goes wrong with the "350" part of a C4, it is everything else on, around, and associated with that "350". B: "Good GM mechanics" that have been working on GM vehicles for less than 30 years are more accustomed to working on the LS platform with OBD II or CANBUS which tells them what to change.
There are many tasks that go quicker and easier with less trauma and broken 30-40 year old parts if the guy doing the work has done it before. Changing a window motor is easy. Removing the door panel without damaging it requires knowing how to do it. I bet you could ask 20 "good GM mechanics" how to pull the flash codes on an OBD I platform, and maybe 2 of the 20 might know.
