Default FTL Perkins wizard wanted

I'm going to do a survey on a suspect 4-154, but don't live anywhere near
FTL, so doing my own on-the-ground legwork is challenging.

Does anyone have a Perkins maven they'd recommend for an engine survey in
the FTL area?

Thanks.

I've got a survey scheduled for Wednesday 28Jan with a recommended fellow
who will do the compression test, bore scope, oil analysis, run it up to
temps and put it under load (not at sea, though) on both the 4-154 and the
much newer generator.

If it turns out like it should (effective work for the price), I'll let you
know who it is, as it seems nobody here knows anyone to refer in SE FL...
