I need to find a shop or mechanic preferably in the Seattle area that can service my hydraulic lifter valves in my 300. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Roger. That's a good start.

Craig,
What sort of problems are you having?
The 300" 6 is a fairly straight forward engine. A lot of the service work can be done a person with basic mechanic skills and minimal tools.

Roger,

I bought the truck a few months ago and upon hearing the engine run for the first time it was my dad who mentioned the valve tick-tick-tick-tick-like clutter.
My only experience in repair has been bolt-on up to this point. I'm not sure if this is something I could do with my skill-set so I would prefer to have a professional tackle it. Also would be nice to get a mechanic to give the whole engine/suspension a good once-over check while he/she is at it.
