If you're looking for a solid shop around Riverside, send Glenn at Pelican Parts a PM - I believe he's around Riverside and will be able to suggest a great place.

I would suggest you go see Jay at Specialized Porsche Service. He's been in the biz a looooooooong time, knows his stuff.

Address: 6676 Indiana Ave, Ste 102, Riverside, CA 92506
Phone: +1-951-788-4216
Hours: 8:00am-5:00pm

I would shy away from Kravig Engineering. They mucked up a lot of work on my old 911 SC before my parents gave it to me. It took quite a bit of time to undo the "performance tuning" they did. Car also came back without a catalytic converter. Nearly a decade before I was able to get it road-worthy.

We have a car in the shop that came in for it's 1000 mile service. The engine rebuild leaves a lot to be desired.
Both drain plugs full of ferris metal, low compression on two cylinders, etc. ect.
The two bolts for the engine cross bar to chassis were about two threads from dropping the motor to the pavement. The speedo cable had it's tensil strength tested when the engine was pulled and it was forgotten to be disconnected.
I feel really bad for the owner of this car.
