Well, I just got off the phone with the tech who's overlooking the whole project, and he said "Hey buddy you're going to run into problems with this engine from the research we've done. Going to need new codes and exhaust system and radiator won't fit apparently and etc etc. It's going to cost you more than what I quoted, possibly in the early 3 grand range. Let me know what you wanna do."
I'm going to pull my car out of that shop for undertaking a task they were unable to conquer with certainty. I'm also going to give you guys a huge THANK YOU by donating to the site and utilizing the links y'all provided me with.
If there is anyone within the VA area who is willing to assist me with the swap Please don't hesitate to let me know - I will pay, you just have to bring the knowledge onto the trade table
