I used to live in Exton back in the 90's. I now live in MD. If you cannot find a tech in your area, and do not mind driving about an hour, I recommend Rob Metzger that owns Gallant's Automotive in Bel Air, MD. Super tech, great guy and trustworthy standing behind his work. 410-838-2355.

Good luck on your tech search.

Another great Corvette mechanic is Rick Kim of RKT Performance in Frederick, MD. You can call him if you have questions. He is the only mechanic whom I will let work on my Z06.

We'll be happy to take care of you but you can contact Complete Street Performance in West Chester, PA. They are a forum sponsor and we work with them on a regular basis. I wouldn't have recommended them unless they were top notch.
