Folks here can walk you through it if you want to try yourself.  Pretty easy IMO if you are the least bit mechanically inclined.

I know a guy in Wa but he works for stihl dealer. So dont know if he would take it on outside of the shop.

Not to many porters here in Washington State; most people here just do it them self

Head up to Van Island there are a couple real good ones there
