I'm sorry if I gave the impression that I was wrenching on it, those days are behind me. I brought it up here yesterday because Mike at Shafiroff was saying it wasn't his problem. Now it appears that at least some assistance is being offered up, but regardless I want to stay in the loop and know what is done. I choose an engine builder because they have both the experience, a dyno, and have honed over time what parts work the best. I choose a shop that enjoys working on hot rods, has lifts, and for the small price charged to swap engines, it just the best way for me to go. For 40 years I rolled my own, but now I am in a position to pay for the skilled labor. I'm just a gray bearded hot rodder, choosing what I want done and paying for it. Does this put me in poor standing on the forum? I hope not, because hot rods have been part of my life for a long time, same as flying and sailing. I used to work on my plane and have that work inspected and signed off by an A&P, but don't do that anymore. I do still design and build electric vehicles, but that is only because I can do it better than others.Bob
