Thanks... you would'nt happen to know of any good mechanics? i was hoping that since i got the engine out of the car instead of fixing it just buy a new engine and build it up from there but i need a good mechanic to do so or some good advice and do it myself, i'd heard of vn motors been put it is that too much trouble? _________________ Formally known as LOK15 on this forum

Mate, someone on here spent 15k on his car, putting the v6 in and shit, then once he finished no engineer would touch it with a 10 foot pole. |
