    Well it is time to do my engine out major on my 99 355 and I am not looking forward to driving it over to Central FL Ferrari. Any reccomendations for someone local to the Tampa Bay area would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's a link to a thread here in the Florida regional areas group where I posted a list of nearby F-car mechanics / service centers along with their approx. driving distance from Tampa:

    It would be three times farther to take the car to Jupiter than Orlando. While there arent many Steve Claassen's or Tim Stanford's around Tampa Bay, you may want to check with Luciano Sanzogni's garage in Sarasota.

    Lucianco is about as close to a full Ferrari factory mechanic as you are going to find in the area. (941) 756-4874.

    Almost forgot (Ok, I did forget) that there is a Ferrari/exotic specialist in
    Clearwater called Eibell Performance, Inc.

    They are located in an industrial park area near the St. Pete/Clearwater Airport and their number is (727) 573-0911.

    I'm told Eibell does good work and the place is nearly always full of
    Ferraris.

    Yes, Paulie, a new Avitar changes everything and enlightens me enough to know that the world indeed does not revolve around Jupiter!

    We love David C. as much as anyone but our friend Schuey here is looking a mechanic in the Tampa Bay area which, if my odometer is correct, is over
    200 miles west of Jupiter.

    I had heard that the Ferrari Tech had left Eibell, Do not know where he went. Ferrari of Central Florida plans to open a shop in Pinellas County in the near future. You might contact them to verify their plans.
