Does anyone know of a good Mustang repair shop in the Livermore, Dublin or Pleasanton area?

I have a 93 gt and I need someone to find the resason it is pinging. I have changed all sensors (egr valve & position, act, ect & bap), full tune-up (including coil, distributor + icm (timing is at 10), new h-pipe and o2's. We can't track down what is causing the pinging. I am running 93 octane gas in it. The maf is clean and it also has a new fuel filter, alternator and battery. Lastly, seafoam has been ran through the crankcase, intake and fuel tank.

Check and make sure the outer ring of the harmonic balancer isn't loose and has moved....You maybe at a higher degree than you think...The outter ring has the timming marks on them and seperate over time...

Any exhaust leaks?...

I forgot to add, the harmonic balancer was also replaced this past summer. It was replaced, because we weren't sure if it had slipped or not.
