I have a good friend in North Versailles who's done that exact engine/tranny swap in that exact car, except that he put a turbo on it too. He knows his stuff and can do whatever. Call him at 412-607-5202, he's cool, his name is Chris, I'm sure he'd hook you up. Tell him Ritchie told you to call.

The only shop I know of that does this every day is Speed of Sound in Wilkins Twp. I cannot vouch for this sort of project-but the work on my cars that they have done was first rate. Price-who knows, call and ask. BTW: FX Motorsports in Greensburg is another good shop.

Swap
If you wanna drive like 2 1/2 hours to me i'll do it. I live up by Erie. If you want it done than i'll put a B18a in it cheap. I have one laying around that i could let go of cheap. If your interested email me at jrm2.jmunk@westpa.net i could do the whole swap in 2 days or maybe 1 1/2 if i got moving.

Just wondering if anyone needs any work done. I'm home for the holidays, and ready for whatever. I've got a few alarms and some audio equipment that I'd like to sell/install also.
