Your regional forum would be a great place to post this question.

MD has to have more than one Corvette Club.
A search w/ show who they are, and, how to contact via email.
Drop one or more a short email, club president's are usually the persona tasked w/ replying to inquiries & always glad to help.
Absent recommendations/referrals from other C owners, directly?
CCs are a good tact one can depend on. G/L

Mike Furman of Criswell Chevrolet and the Corvette community mentions Tony's numerous times as a facility there in your area.
Would not hurt to ask Mike through a PM or email via the forum, he always seems to go above and beyond for the Corvette community..........

Also - Criswell Chevrolet in Gaithersburg (where Mike Furman works) has an excellent shop. I have taken my Vettes and Camaros there for years and completely happy with service. If you decide on Criswell, see Dina in service who is a great Vette service adviser.

We are not too far in DE. You can even bring it in first thing one morning and leave around lunchtime if you dont want to make the trip twice. Give us a call for pricing and scheduling. We have these parts in stock.

I just talked to Tony's Corvette Shop in Gaithersburg about the cost of a harmonic balancer replacement. The cost is about $1250 for the GM replacement.
They were at least a month waiting time for an appointment and he said that pretty soon (as spring arrives) they could be 2-3 months.
