Any one with expirence replacing an opti/water pump near kissimmee/ clermont area?

I need some help. Ive never done the opti install before, and I want it done right. Im new to FL and don't know many people here. If no one wants to help, can any one tell me a trusted shop that can do the install? Ill go to orlando if needed. thanks. john. ps Of corse Id pay for the help.

Just a little info. On any opti installs, tear downs or water pumps I do on the LTs I always tap the lower weep hole and thread in a 1/4 nipple with a hose on it to direct leakage away from the distributor.

Just a little prevenative maint.

Have you gotten this done yet?


Only takes me an hour and a half, tops, to do an opti. I'd be glad to help out but you'd have to get the car here to my place.

holy crap! I Didn't expect to get this many replies. Thank you to every one who has volunteered their time. thats awesome. I haven't gotten this done yet as other issues have come up yet. I should have waited to post this until after I bought the opti, but i didn't expect the extenuating circumstances. As soon as I have it I will re post. thanks to every one.
