Default Motor Swap

I am from CT, where can I get a motor swap done for a good price? And reputable people? I am willing to go to NY, RI, MA, PA, and of course CT. As long as it's not more than 5 hours from 06601. HELP!!!!! I had a guy from Greensburg, PA who was going to do it, but I didn't realize he was 7 hours away!!!! He was going to charge me $500.

Matt suck it up and travel the 7 hrs to get it done. The way you drive you'll be there in 5.

Give my boy Jeff @ Maximum Tuning a call.. 516.676.8470.. or Kenny @ Full Throttle.. 718.326.1052. They do great work, and are located in NY, right by me, about an hour/ hour and a half away from ur zip code.

I have. I would love to but theres a few thigns holding me back.

1. I don't have a garage, so I'd have to use a friends.

2. It's my daily driver, so if I run into any probs I'm screwed.

3. I'm all confused about the wiring... whether I need OBD 1 or OBD 2.

4. No engine lift

think theres' more, but those are the main ones.

Plus I just think its worth 500 to have somebody else do it. WHo has the extra parts handy if we run into any snags.
