Default Need a good DSM shop.

Hey I was just wondering if anyone knows of any good DSM shops near Virginia Beach. I recently read about crankwalk for the past 5 hours (due to the rain) and scarred the shit out of myself. I would just want them to measure the endplay of the crank or if worse comes to worse swap in a 6 bolt.

Not sure what to tell you, but DP is okay, but never dealt with them really. Just went there and were never able to help me out. But I just put in a 6 bolt in a sec gen. It's easy, but need the new wiring, that's the harder part of the entire swap

i had a chance to work on a car they did some work on. it was the most poorly put together shit i have ever seen. the owner and i have had a long time rivalry so that doesn't help it either.
i just would stay away from them...

Which car does the owner have? Is it a turbo civic? I went there today and it turns out I don't have crankwalk after all. Just bad 02 sensor and my front mount between the engine and radaitor is bad causing the knock sound. Do you work at abacuss or something and what car do you have if you don't mind me asking?
