tune up shop on NW side prefered

Any recomendations for a Tune-Up shop? My 350 is bogging down on long hills and even sputtering now and then. I would like to find a good shop in town and still be able to bike home or to work.

The engine is a TBI 350 pulled from a 1993 1500 pickup that had 100K on it when I got it. So it probably has perhaps 130-150K now.

ALso, I would like to improve its exhaust. Any suggestions for that?

Thanks

TROY,

Ihave not totally dissapeared just have been busy with work and kids.

Troy,

I know a guy here on the south side of town that may be able to diagnose some issues with your engine.. First thing i would check is fuel pressure.. let me know if you want his #

I just redid my exhaust with Ramshorns manifolds, 2 1/4" with a basic turbo muffler.. Sounds ok, and i did it all for like $150..

see my buildup thread for photos.
