I need Northern ca help tuning Options

[Porscheless]

Hi Everyone...I got really excited this weekend finding and reading about all the knowledge and enthusiasm for 914s at Original Customs which was about 45 minutes away from me .So i called talked to Marc of Original Customs today and he informed me that his napa shop was no longer and he was standing in his new shop in Michigan!
I would really like to take his advice and improve the power and performance of my 2.0 which feels less than its optimum at the moment.( i drove a stock 2.0 recently that had much more pull than mine.
After adjusting valves and checking compression...
He suggested tuning the carbs using a csp linkage versus my current set up and going through and checking all of the jets...and possibly a mallory distributer instead of the 009/pertronix.

Does anyone know of santa rosa/north bay/or thereabouts based shops or mechanics that could help with these setups.
Marc offered to walk me through the procedures over phone or email which i thought was over the top helpful but i would really like to find local 914 enthusiast with savvy.
The other thing i would like to do is upgrade the shifter linkage mine is ridiculously difficult even with new bushings.
Thanks for reading this ,i may need to change my name no longer porscheless
