Welcome aboard. I would go to some car show or even the local cars and coffee. Corvette owners, at least here in Columbus, tend to hang out together and often discuss mechanics in the area. Joining a local corvette club will help out too. Good luck. Go Bucks

I'm on the search.. I'm trying to stay away from the Chevy dealers. They start the clock when you drive on the lot. My 08 car only has 24K miles and recently developed a check engine light that I have cleared several times. The car runs fine. I think it is a co2 sensor. However with 4 in play If heard horror stories the dealer will replace all 4 with big $$ :ack

Found a shop in Mainville, OH. Just North of Kings Island.

Force 1 100 Grandin Road. 45039 513 683 0223

Good guys that know their stuff. High performance cars are their passion. Reasonable hour rates. [I]No flat rate parts hangers. Owner manager / Brian 513 683 0223 Great prices on tires.
