How about the 25th for the test and tune at NPR? Those are pretty good nights to go...its not all imports, but hey...I'm sure I will make the import tuners race in October, hopefully with a few more mods than what I have now...

the closest place that i know of is in texas. i don't know the name off hand but i can tell you that if you go to Baldwin Motors in Covington, talk to Jon Baldwin (big car nut has 2 ferrari's). he has a few "conections". hell he even might be able to help you out with the swap. you should definatly check him out.

There's a shop off of Industrialplex Blvd. between Airline and Seigen that would probably do it. I think it's called Lightening Motorsports.
