Hi there, people. I need some really urgent frown.gif help in order to find any machine shop in Bradenton, FL area that can be capable of disassembling a 3S-GTE engine properly and packaging the parts in boxes.

I bought a JDM 3S-GTE plus AWD tranny, all axels, diff and spindels via Canadian market (vtec_motors seller in eBay). The engine and all stuff are already in the bed of my friend's truck in Bradenton, FL, just waiting to be delivered to some mechanic. We tried to deliver it at some people but all them said they can't do the job because they don't know this engine and were afraid of breaking stuff.

This engine will be shipped to Brazil (where I do live). Before you question why don't I ship it assembled let me explain that (weirdly) engines can be shipped assembled to Brazil but the buyer must pay high customs taxes (I mean almost 300% of the product price) and it can take 2 years for it being fully freed by government to ride. So if I send the split engine it will be cheaper and faster, even If I need to rebuilt it.

Here in Brazil I bought a Celica GT 1995(really rare around here) and I intend to make a GT-Four swap. I know it's difficult and will worth a bunch of bucks but I'll handle it. This car will be a track day/drag racing car to be upgraded in the future.

Sorry about english mistakes. Can anyone help me?
