You could shell out 5000 and get it done for you, but you gotta weigh whats more important. Yeah you want a hella fast car pretty quickly (that is if u can find a shop who knows how to do the swap) or do you want the know how, the pride of doing it urself. Also price, i did mine for 3000 and i did it mainly because i didnt have all that money and i wanted to do it myself. Easy it is not, but i dont regret doing it.

thats why i do all the things i want done myself.

it saves money, and its the experience that matters to me.

plus, if anything does happen, there is always the option of getting help.
