uh... my house? or propulsion, or John Haley motorsports

me or phil (gt2510s) could do it, but i live in brooklyn park, so i imagine i'm closer than he is, and by imagine i mean know....

BP is about 15 miles from minneapolis, and i just happen to have an open engine stall right now.

if we are just putting in an engine, and i dont know if you mean we or just me, but it should take us 2 days MAX, most likely around 4 to 8 hours depending on what we are doing. ive never done a SOHC swap, but a gang of DOHCs, so it might take me 8 hours or so

couple hundred bucks sounds fair, shoot me and e-mail, and phil i need the money WAY more than you do

If you take the diff out I have a specal gell that you spray on the gears so they do not get brittle when you weld the diff. You dont want to get it too hot or you will have a junk diff. The jell takes the heat out of the steel. Its fror welding sheet meal together so it will not warp when you weld it. Give me a holla I can take it to my cousins shop and get r done thats were I did mine. Soon we will have just about the same setup in our s13's. LOL I still have rsr gt2 exhaust to install and a hot shot header on the way. I want a 3" hi flow cat too before I install my exhaust. I know others that want there diffs welded so I will give you a jinge and we can have a diff welding party.

far out and solid and right on, as for my exhaust set up, i'm making a test pipe cut-out. from summit the manuel cut out is only 46 bones, and a test pipe can be made... plus sometimes you want to be ridiculously loud, other times you want to not kill yourself on the highway...
