NorCal Mechanic for Rod Bearing R&R

I just got in on a GB for coated bearings. Only have 37k miles on the car, but feel like this is something that will need to be done sooner than later. Would like a reference or two for shops in the area that actually have experience doing this on an S54. Pretty sure my "guy" has no idea...

so, any good shops in NorCal (i'm in San Jose, but will certainly travel 60+ miles for an experienced and recommended installer).

TIA!

Performance Technic in Pleasanton has been great with my car.

I had them refresh an engine to drop into my car - rod bearings/bolts, oil pump upgrade, valve adjustment, VANOS cam bolts, etc. They work on a lot of S54's and know the engine very well.
