Lookin' for Austin area shop

I'm planning a upgrade project for my '81 F100. Don't have the room to accomplish the main mission of changing from 300/manual to 302/auto. tatsch gave me one suggestion in Driftwood. I'm in Round Rock and asking if someone knows a good Ford shop closer to RR area? No big hurry but I do want a closer place. Thanks

Woody....no I don't. I know where they will be coming from and all the numbers. Everything is still in plan stage. Big part of plan is finding someone I can feel comfortable with in knowledge, ability, and honesty . I've had my truck since it had 3mi on it. I've always done my own work and letting someone I don't know or feel comfortable with, is huge with me. Hope you understand.....thanks for the response.

Thanks Woody! My grand daughter and great grand daughter live close-by in Red Rock. Works at Walmart....(grand, not great grand). If ok, I'll pm-U more details of plans. Nothing is imminent. I appreciate the offer.
