Default Engine Swaps in the Bay Area?

I know that a lot of people do their swaps themselves but since I lack the knowledge and the proper tools to preform an Engine Swap, I am going to have to have someone do it for me..

Anyone know of any reliable shops in the Bay Area with reasonable prices?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the fast replies guys..

I was originally going to go with Hybrid Automotive but it looks like they raised their prices on engine swaps.. $495.. I guess I will check out DNR.

Anyone know where DNR is located? Is that in sac?

You can also try Motorsports Techniques in Hayward. Wee is probably the best mechanic in the area. He's been doing this for along time. Talk to Ron cause he's the owner.
