Default In need of recommendations in SoCal for timing chain tensioner/guide jobs

I have a 5.0 S/C V8 Jaguar XF and needs timing chain tensioner and guides job done. Could use some good recommendations in Southern California if y’all recommend any. I called around and some don’t do it. In and around San Fernando valley 818 or 30 plus miles or more out. If you know any and would recommend a shop, please do. Thanks 🙏🏽

Default Al's Jaguar in Torrance is reliable

I have been very satisfied with their work. Not a bargain, but they do a good job. It is quite a distance from where I live in West LA but worth the drive.
Quite a distance from you but closer than Newport Beach.

Contact Miguel at British Performance in Mission Viejo. He knows the XFR inside and out. Rebuilt my engine after a devastating timing chain tensioner failure.
