Default Valve adjustment

My AP2 is over due for it's 60,000 mile valve adjustment and I'm looking for somewhere to have it done. I definitely do not have the time or patience to bother doing it. LHT Performance seems to come highly recommended and it looks like they work on quite a few S2000's. I know better than to take it either of the two Honda dealers down here (Sarasota). Just curious if anyone else recommends them or maybe another reputable shop that has experience with this, thanks!

LHT for sure. Had mine done there, John does great work. However, I didn't get my adjustment done until 85k miles and John said my valves were barely out of spec. Maybe you can wait a bit longer to get it done, it's your call.

LHT did the valve adjustment on my AP1 at around 40k miles. If I don't do the work my self I ask (John) LHT to do it, I would not trust anyone else to work on my engine

I hear ya! I've got just under 70k on it now, I know Honda recommends doing it at 60k but I've read the F22's aren't as bad when it comes to needing the valve adjustment. I daily the car and do all the other work/maintenance myself, so this is one of the last things on my list that "needs" to be done.

I'm the same way. I've only had this car for a little over a year and I'm the 4th owner, that being said I've done almost everything they recommend in the change/check/replace thread for new owners. Up until now, I've done everything myself but this is not something I want to mess with. I talked to John for about 15 minutes on the phone and got a quote, he will definitely be seeing my car! Thanks guys for all the help and input.
