Mechanic in Annapolis for Lehman 120 Damper Plate Replacement

Our Lehmans have 5,500 hours on them. Maintenance records before our ownership are incomplete but there exist enough information to conclude that the damper plates have never been replaced. One transmission was overhauled at 2,300 miles but there was no mention of damper plate replacement. Given that the plates do not last forever and at 5,500 hours they have probably lived about as long as one could hope, I want to get them replaced.

It's a job I could likely do myself but I choose not to do so. I am looking for a "guy" in the Annapolis area who is experienced with Borg Warner Velvet Drives mated to Lehmans. Our Defever 44 has great access to both the engines and the transmissions.
