real cost of a swap, really need help here everyone Options

[axelrduvirage]

hey y'all,

really need some solid advice here. what can i expect to pay for a 3sgte swap. i have a line on an engine/tranny for a really good price. i've checked-out the shop where the work was done and they seem to have a solid reputation. 45 years in the business and no complaints to the BBB. shop looked tidy and the techs were mature, experienced-looking and friendly. did not specifically mention the engine or what i was looking for, just a general "how's it going, i'm looking for a shop for some work on a car" conversation with the guy behind the desk.

the question here is:

how much can i expect a swap to cost excluding the price of the engine/tranny?
wiring, turbo, wastegate, tuning, dyno tests, piping, intercoolers, how much does that all cost before i can put the car back on the road?

thanks
