Anyone know a good shop in DE/NJ area to perform engine swap?

I'm just in the planning stages right now and probably won't do anything for at least another year or two, but I am looking at ordering a 383 long block from either Golen or CPE and will need to find a good shop in the area to do the install/tune. Anyone have a recommendation?

Do not know of any good shop that will not cost you a lot of money, but if you are buying a long block you can swap out the motor in a weekend and be ready to go,

How well do you think a pcmforless tune would do on a 383 like that? Making sure it is tuned properly and not missing out on any potential power is one of my primary concerns. In the meantime, I'm planning to cam my stock engine and run it as long as it will go. It only has 87k and is solid, so probably can get several more years out of it before wanting to pull it anyway.

I had PCMforless.com do a mail-order on my 383. Ran it for almost a full year before having it dyno-tuned.
