Does anyone have a rough estimate on how fast an "average" shop can do a b16a swap into a 91 lx? I mean, this may be a route that I'm taking, but I'll need it before the 22nd. Is that possible, given that they dont have anything in front of mine and they can start right on it?

if they do no other work on it and are a competent shop they should have it done in no more than 3 business days.

Ya. I'd figure giving them 5 business days, just because I had a lot of unexpected problems with both of my swaps. :)
3 if they're good and nothing goes wrong. :p

i know it probably isn't very common but there was a few problems with mine and it took 3 weeks so don't expect it in 4 days :(

^^^ As can I. I've done 3 swaps so far into my car, and i've always had them done in a day, besides the b18, which the swap was done, i was just waiting on parts i didnt have for like 2 days.

i beleive that guy up there who can do it in a day....not much too it. depends on how well the shop performs....how many times have they done that swap. how competant is the tech....ive done them in a day. its not all that hard. basicaly drop old one....2hrs with air tools....hammer what needs to be hammered...drop b16 in 3-4hrs....i say no more than a 10hr job if u got the tools and know what ur doing.
