Shops in the Midwest for Engine Swap

Long time viewer, first time writer.
I have a 1989 Toyota Pickup with a now defunct 22re, looking to swap with either the 3.4L or the 1UZ. I want to retain the manual trans and 4WD.
My problem is, I am not a mechanic. Looking for a trusted shop or mechanic, preferably in the Midwest that does this sort of thing on the regular.
Truck has been sitting for about 20 years, but has been in weather controlled storage, see picture below taken about 3 or 4 years ago with my nephew.
Hoping to get it back on the road and show it a few times a year as well.
Any help will be appreciated. I have combed through the threads and could not find any references for shops in the Midwest, so again, thanks!

Getting hard to find competent people anywhere.
You might consider ToyOnlySwaps - I think they're in OR or WA tho.
Check also the engine swap subforum.
