So it seems that I have to give up on trying to fix my engine, it seems that either a cam or a valve bent and then engine is just not moving. Now what I need is someone that can do the engine swap for me. Right now the car is n/a and I'm gonna be putting a tt engine. So if anyone knows someone I can take it to that has done the job before I would be very appreciated. TY.

Well money is a lil bit of an issue I'm just trying to take advantage of a situation figured since my engine was seized and have to swap it out anyway that it be a better idea to just swap it with a TT engine, but not trying to go broke over it either, btw ty guys I'll try to contact those ppl you recommended.

Well for the moment I have a friend that says he can do it and he's quoting me about 2k for the labor so now I'm kinda searching to see how I can get everything I need, so far the best thing I've been able to find is a place called JDM Engine Depot, they said that can order me a front clip for about 3.2k. Just trying t see if their are any other alternatives at the moment.

i went to jdmenginedepot.com in kearny, i thought they were ok.

3.2k for a front half seems reasonable, conceptzperformance.com charges about the same, including mailing.

get a compression # though, don't be stupid like me.
