Default Looking for a Shop in Tampa or within driving distance

Now that I'm living in tampa, just outside Ybor, I have secured parking lot at my new place but I'm not allowed to work on the car there.
I'm ordering the Kooks headers & offroad X pipe this week with the jet hot coating. So when they come in I'm going to need to have someone install them, as I have noplace that I can work on the car for 10+ hours. (Those that say it can be done in much less time, I have learned that when it comes to LTs what you plan on is a waste of time. Its real easy to have to do things over.
Last time after bolting up the drivers side LTs on my last mustang I noticed that the steering shaft that had to be disconnected was now pinned/blocked by the header. Something always comes up.

I would like to take it to a shop that knows what they are doing with the new stangs. While I would love to do it myself, if going to a shop I want someone that is reasonable with the price (Don't need the cheapest, as I don't want to deal with cross threading or 14 hour install times) but can get the job done with minimal issues coming up.

There's one shop in Riverview that specializes on 2005 up Mustangs and I heard the owner is good.

Zamboni's Speed & Custom - Mike Zamboni - owner - 813-236-1888

There's another one, Coastal Dyno, but he specializes in SN95 specially Cobras, but I'm sure he would do the intall for you as well. Don't have the address or phone number, but I know htey are of
Causeway in Tampa.
