Default Competent, solid LS3 mechanic in San Jose

Hi there,
I have a non-corvette (1953 Chev 3100) with a factory crate LS3 (2000 miles!!) and I seem to have developed the stuck oil pressure relief valve symptoms - 0 psi pressure on start-up for 5 seconds, followed by low oil pressure at idle.

Any recommendations for a local shop which I can trust to debug this problem with certainty and fix it?

Thx

Call up Mike at TPS Motorsports in Santa Clara. I heard they do quite a bit of LS Swaps.

I second Mike, He simply gets it. As a auto detailing business owner I sent several people to Mike and he just solved the issues.
