Default Good place to get gears/locker/headers installed in VA

Hey, just wondering if you guys can give me any automotive shops around the Chesapeake VA area that are pretty good with installs. I need to have a set of headers as well as a Detroit locker and 4.88's installed for a decent priced...i know for the most part taking it anywhere due to the type of work its gonna be rape but regardless i need to have em done.

I had one in mind but after three calls and not once receiving a quote back im done trying them...

The shop I used just went under. I drove by there the other day to talk to Steve (the mechanic I use) and the shop was closed. Became a transmission place. If you find someone good, let me know too and I'll do the same.
