I need concrete/masonary help...anyone?

OK, i finally got my 2 post lift for my garage. but now i need to deal with installing it. My garage floor is probably only 3" or less of common concrete. What i want to do is cut into the floor and basically make a trench to recess the floor bar so i dont have to worry about clearence for my car. the floor bar is about 2" high, a foot wide, and about 11 feet across. so...i need to cut out an area a little bigger than that with 18" squares on each side and about a total of 12" deep. Once its cut/dug out, i'm going to have a concrete truck come and pour high strength concrete in the opening and before it hardens, im going to embed long j hooks and bolts into it to bolt the lift base to when it gets installed.

so i guess now for the point of my post. I need someone who knows about cutting concrete and getting it setup for a new pouring. tools and equipment would be a plus but i may have stuff we could use, or ill rent stuff. I'll even pay for help in person. Ill appreciate any advice/help. Thanks in advance. -Paul
