More direct exposure to Florida and surrounding area Bolters that will probably have the most knowledge on a suitable engine shop in your neck of the woods. Good luck!

I'm in south central Tennessee near the Alabama state line and I-65. I rebuilt the head on the 216 in "46 Texaco" a few months ago, and Archie was very pleased with it. Just a heads up- - - -stainless steel exhaust valves for a Chevy small block V8 are a drop-in fit for stovebolt heads- - - -no need to install stellite valve seats that way.
