Re: looking for someone to do a swap (chusai)
E-mail me, Jamesbondo@aol.com, I do swaps and I'm in Boston. Let me know what motor you have, what the car is, and what your timeframe is, and I can give you references if you'd like.

Re: looking for someone to do a swap (chusai)
Man, i did mine in my dirt driveway.
Tools used:
Jack/Jackstands
3/8ths Metric ratchet set
Sizes 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 14mmdeep, 17mm, 17mmdeep, 19mm, 1 1/2"sae
Needle nose pliers
Breaker bar (1/2" ratchet with a 4' peice of 1" pipe)
Screwdriver
Hammer
Ball joint puller
Prybar
Rented engine hoist ($34 per day, Used 2 days)
Can of WD40 (Soaked the crap out of all the bolts for 3 days)
It's really not that hard. I was scared as hell before i started it, but i figured the worst that could happen was that i would have to get my car towed to a shop or something..........
Edit- I'll post some pics after i get them developed (No digicam )

All by myself it took me about a week. That was with dropping the motor off to get some work done on it and crap..................

I can do the swap for you. I am in CT and I will travel a little ways to Mass. What parts do you have, what is the car, and motor.
