Just a quick question, is there any shop in the northeast area that has experience with a 3sgte swap. I want to pretty much buy a shell and dump it somewhere and have a motor swapped in as painless as possible.

haha thanks for the kind words guys.
a basic rundown for a 3rd gen swap into a GT, with the stock tranny, looks somthing like this (these are all ballpark figures, and i probably am forgetting a couple things)
~3k for a clip
~500 for mantinence parts (water pump, timing belt, tensioner, wires, cap, rotor, plugs)
~3-500 wiring (cost varys depending on setup)
~500 exhaust (add for stainless piping)
~100 fuel pump
~400 clutch
labor is where it gets tricky, depending on what you want for an end result, it can vary wildly, from ~1k-1200, to way more than 99% of people here would think is resonable to spend on a car. lol
if your serious, PM me when your ready.

The partout is going well but at this point I dont plan to start another project until may, I will be without a car for all this time but my honda was my only car. I worked on it for 13 months so whats another 5 months taking the bus. Was looking to start right away with another one but I am tired at this point. Will just unplug and figure something out when it gets warm out again. Looking to put together at least 10 and with rent bills that wont happen till may.
