IMS Retrofit in South Florida

I'm considering having this done to my early-production 2005 997 and noticed that LN Engineering has more than one vendor in this area. Considering that I think more 996 owners have taken this step than 997 owners, I've posted in both forums. If anyone has had this done in South Florida, I'd appreciate knowing which shop you used. Thanks.

Jeff

Just wanted to update that, based on a recommendation from fellow 6speeeder MiamiC70, I had the IMS retrofit done by J&W Motorsports in Doral. To steal a line from Mastercard:

Cost of buying a 2005 Porsche - $41,000

Upgrading the IMS - $1,185

Not having to worry about ruining the engine - Priceless

(BTW, the old bearing was fine after 34,000 miles.)
