call around, i dont know any performance shop that "spealizes" in toyotas in MN nor WI, most or a lot of them are hondas/mitsu/nissans/. Look in the phone book and ask them if they would swap in your motor

That sucks man. But I know RS is a good place to go for toyota work. My buddy with a built 7th got most of his stuff done there and loves their work. 952-707-0100 thats their number, hope you can get your car up and running before winter.
