Engine Swap Shops in/around LA
Well, I spent a little bit of time searching the forum for a thread about the subject but I didn't find much. A while earlier I posted about swapping in an s13 SR w/ bigger turbo or an s15 SR. I've opted for the S13. However I got a price quote of two places and the price for labor was 1300. Is that ridiculous? It seems so to me. If anyone could give some information about reliable swap shops in or around LA, it would be great.
P.S. I also found another car that I was willing to take up as a project car. It's a 180sx rolling shell in San Diego. What kind of things should I look for or be careful for in a rolling shell to put in an engine? Thank guys. |
