Default good shop for a honda swap

Hey guys I know this has been covered and I did search but the info seemed kind of dated. I would like to swap a sohc ZC motor into my 88 honda hatch to replace the d15b1 that's currently in there. I'm going to order the zc longblock off of h motors online at the fiirst of the year. From what I've been told its a very easy switch, I just don't have the technical knowledge. And since its my only car. I can't really park it long enough for me to figure it out. Does any one know any good shops or even a reputable at home mechanic who I can trust to do a good job the first time?
