Go to both and talk to them about your wants and desires. They are both good shops and will take care of your vette. Which ever one you choose you'll have made the correct choice.

I go to LAPD for my C6 and their work and tuning is simply the best in my opinion.

Talk to Shawn or Al when you call.

I doubt that you can go wrong with either, but my only personal experience is with A & A. I endorse them without reservation.

My personal experiences with both shops have been very satisfying.

Good luck with your modding...
