East TN performance shops?
I recently purchased a 1996 LT4 Corvette, and with the clutch a little worn and a few other parts needing to be upgraded, I was wondering if there are any shops near the Maryville/Knoxville area that do good clutch, exhaust, etc. work. I have a family friend who takes care of basic maintenance that I can't do, but he definitely doesn't have the stuff for performance modification in his shop. Any suggestions for places to go would be greatly appreciated.

When it comes to our C4's, I haven't found ANYONE I trust to work on it... Paging Dr. Evil.....He owns a LT4 and could point you in the right direction. Shoot him a PM.

Thanks for the kind words Chuck
Nick over at HPM is a great guy and local. I dont know if he does any work on C4s but its worth a call. If I didnt do all the work on mine myself I'd use Nick.
I'm not a shop though. I'm just a guy that knows C4s OK and doesnt mind helping a buddy out. I may start taking on some more work once I complete my garage. (This means you need to let me do a cam swap on your ruby Chuck

Thanks for the kudos guys.
I have not done any C4 work in a while.. since I had my own.
I could likely do yours though, we would have to talk about time frame for me to do some work.
PM me if you are interested.
Thanks again for pointing me to this thread!

There is White Performance and 4 Wheels Unlimited but they aren't Corvette specialists. They've done some good work on LT and LS cars though.
Wait those are in Kingsport... nevermind.
