Where do you do engine swaps?
I'm new here and I dont have a car but I am hoping for a 1989 240SX. I want to buy the sr20 but where do I really get the engine swapped?

Welcome to the forums. Like they said, you can pay a performance/swap shop to do it, or you can partake in the swap yourself or with the help of friends.

Thanks. I'll probably have to pay a shop to do it. How much would that cost? A good 240SX is 2000$ engine is 1650$ so I'm thinking how many hours I'd have to work in the summer to afford it.

I know most places around here charge about $1000-1500 for install and wiring depending on everything thats being done.
