Shops and Parts in Central CALI???

Hello all, I was wondering if there are any shops or retail stores in the Central California, Fresno/Clovis area for Lightnings. I have been toying with the idea of having my own shop for some time now, and I love working on these trucks! The shop would hopefully include a dyno and some custom tuning, and maybe even a retail parts store. Is anyone already doing this?? Not trying to compete with anyone or make a ton of money, I just want to have some fun and maybe make a living at it. BK, Ford Motor Company and ASE certified Technician.

I agree that it would be great to have something here in the Central Valley. There's a lot of Import shops but nothing that I've seen for Lightnings. I know a few great shops in Fresno, but none of them specialize on Lightnings, or even Fords. I've got my eye on a few Dynos here in town that may be up for sale, and I'm thinking seriously about brushing up my tuning skills and taking a course on fuel mapping. I absolutely love tuning on Fuel Injected and Forced-Induction setups, it's all such a wonder to me, and the possibilities are endless. We will see what happens. BK
