My Houston People!

Hey everyone, so I'm finally moving back home from San Diego.
I'm active duty Navy and got orders to come home and do some recruiting. Thank god.
Here's my story a few weekends before my move I went on down to Mexico and got some solid runs in... The car didn't like the final pull we did and she fought back with problems. The engine stalled out, no longer fires up and just backfires.
I pulled valve covers in my tiny garage in Calfornia and everything looked ok, when I turn the key everything moves.. the pulley, all of the rockers and springs. My dad swears I broke the timing chain but I think its internal and hurt.
I'm looking for suggestions on REPUTABLE shop. Proven to push out products that fix the issues not add to them. Can you guys please throw a couple of names out there. Mods are in the signature. Thanks y'all.
I'll see y'all soon.

He is very good at tuning and could chase down any other issues you're having. His shop is in Manvel, very close to hwy6 and 288.

KP Racing on NW side of beltway 8 just behind the horse track. Insane work comes outta this place, and they've fixed more than one build that another shop f'd up. In fact, I'm pretty sure the last one they fixed had the AGP kit on it...

KP racing, fixed mine after a three letter shop told me to take a number and get in line when I spent $3K on cam at their shop and got less than 20K miles. Didn't expect nothing for free but "take a number" . And now I put out same dyno numbers as before but at KP they use mustang dyno. Needless to say I would push my car barefooted in Texas heat to get it my car to KP

again? ugh

Sorry you went through that, hopefully others will learn to get 'connected' in Houston before randomly spending money at these places.
