Default CORVETTE SHOPS IN Northwest Arkansas

I am looking to get some installs done on the car and I need to know if there is a reputable corvette specialist in the area. I am looking to do a Borla Stinger/w X Pipe and CAI. I want someone who has had a couple of C6's under their belt. I will travel to Tulsa or Springfield..but would love to stay in the Fayettville Bentonville area. Any help would be appreciated.

Tough to find any Corvette speciality shops in Arkansas. I found a good independent garage though to do some new tire installs/work on my C5 here locally. Exhaust work is a pretty simple and straightforward job. Look for someone like that and I'm sure they will do a good job for you.

Did you ever find any good shops in the area? I need my underdrive harmonic balancer installed and pined to the crank as well as some pulleys installed. I know this is a old c6 thread but I figured it would be better to bump this then start another. Thanks for any help.

Default Wal Mart

I'm pretty sure there is a Wal Mart some where near by. Try the Corporate offices they can direct you to the nearest one.

If you didn't find someone in NW Arkansas and want to travel to Tulsa, PM me and I'll give you the name of the shop I use. The guy owns a Vette and only works on Vettes. Excellent reputation.

Talk to JoJo at Fletcher Chevrolet in Springdale. He has a Corvette master mechanic named John that will treat your Corvette like his own and does outstanding work. They are very mod friendly and have installed a few 3rd party aftermarket parts for me - I know they have done several headers/exhaust installs, not sure what their attitude would be about the CAI.

There is a specialty shop in Benton County that you need to avoid.. you can PM me for more info that I've heard about them.

Good Luck!

I found the speed shop "Dyno and Performance" in Fort Smith. Don't know if they are any good though. Has anyone heard of them before?

If you're willing to drive as far as Dallas there's a few good shops to choose from.

LG Motor Sports
21st Century Muscle Cars

Although that's easier for me to suggest since I'm a bit closer to start with down here on I-30.

I live in Fayetteville and couldn't find anyone local. I ended up sending it to Quality Motorsports in Texas.
