It's not every day you go shopping for a Engine transplant to be done at a shop. What would be a fair price to expect?
What I have now: Clean 82' Regal- 3.8NA Knocking with the wimpy transmission. >>> What I am looking for: A dependable Mild built SBC-350.<<< Nothing fancy...... I can do upgrades later. I realize I will also have to upgrade the transmission. Also from reading the swap section stickies, I will have to beef-up the front suspension < This I can do on my own.
I'm sick and tired of going out to the garage and seeing her just sit there. If you look at the pic in my profile gallery she is clean. I've had for 5 years and have only driven' her 2 years....
Told the ole'Lady if I keep saying "well, maybe next year....
Found some shops locally (Toledo, Ohio) I plan to visit that I looked up that have good marks thru the B.B.B. I don't know any good shops locally as I normally do all my own work....
Tax Return Refund = Game on.......
Any questions or things to look for when shopping for a Good mechanic will also be appreciated....
Thanks <Mike>
