Default Need Service

Does anyone know any reputable repair shops in the Tampa Florida area? I have a 496MAG in need of service. I've lost faith in my current mechanic.

The boat seams to have trouble getting out of the hole and up on plane. Thought maybe it was a fuel issue. I've also lost top end power. I'm only getting 4K RPM's and WOT, I used to get about 4800.

....and if that doesn't work for you, bring it on down. I can plug in with the laptop and we can go for a ride....
