Default overdrive

Any recommendations for a shop that works on the Borg Warner electric overdrive on the west coast. It is in a 53 Victoria.

I have a good OD trans for a '53 if you are close to Reno. Also, all other parts to convert '53 V8 to a standard shift except column.

If you are anywhere near Seattle, Kirkland Transmission went through mine about 8 years ago and it still is working perfectly.
