Good Ford Mechanic in Orange County?

I have a few small things going on with my van that I need to get checked out/repaired. Anyone have a good recommendation for a mechanic in Orange County, CA?

Thanks!

They've been doing work on J Buffett's Sportsmobile (Ford) for me for the last year, and they are top notch. Not the cheapest, but they stand behind everything - and they've done bangup work on JB's van - including one job that required a full pull out of the engine. If you told him specifically what it needs, he could at least give you a quote, then maybe you put the van on a dolly and get it to your home county. For such a major job, I'd want the work to be done closer to home so that you can have some easier recourse if the repair goes to hell.
