Not B'More but Bel Air, couple exits up 95.
Gallant's is great from my experience. [309 South Atwood ask for George or Rob]
If you are in Bel Air tonight [or any 2nd Monday] the BACC meets from 7-9 in the MacPhail Center behind MVA on Rt 24.

It depends what you need done? There is a guy that I know in Ellicott City that just opened a performance shop.. He used to own a mobil gas station but has been working on and owns many vetts, all years.. His new shop is called Mobil station, I think. It is located on Rt 40 near Turf Calley Country Club. He is a member of Free State Corvette Club and his name is Andy.. He will take care of you. If he can't he can refer you to who can..

Another shop would be F-body Central, they are located in Arbutus.. I have heard good things about them..

P.S. I would stay away from Corvette Specialities in Eldersburg MD..

A friend recommends Corvette Specialties in Eldersburg, MD. I haven't used them, so I don't have first hand knowledge.

Hands down do not take it to F - Body central they will ruin your car... my personal opinion from expierence and if you want fast take it to Performance Specialties in Glen Burnie on crain hwy Call Jeff @ 410-766-7774. This is buy far the best shop you can take any LS1/LS2/LS6/LS7 vehicle too.

Check out PHIL97SVT on the forum. He's right down the road in Port Tobacco. He's done all the major work on my car and done it well. There are a lot of people in the area who use Phil. Great guy- great work. Does a killer Speed Density tune also.
