Engine Builder in NJ area

[commerceking]

Can anyone recommend a good engine builder in the NJ area? I need to do a top swap. Based replies from the forum, I picked up a 39k mile na 2005 engine from a Lacrosse and I only paid $300. I need someone to assemble it for me. Recommendations???

I'm thinking Scottydoggs (he likes to be called Sally). He's in NJ and does very good work.

Name of his shop or other contact information ???

[BillBoost37]

No shop..he's a good guy that I know personally and recommend. He's on this forum as Scottydoggs

[Scottydoggs]

hes means me. i wish i had somewhere to work on cars. or id take it on. your on the other side of the state from me.

im lacking a engine hoist too.

Aren't you in Hackensack? If you have a place to work, I can bring you just the engine.

[Scottydoggs]

thats the thing, no where to work, no hoist.

i work on my car at my friends house. he really dont want me working on my car there, but i work on his stuff so i get away with it. hes got a new paver driveway and i dont think he'd let me clear out his garage to work on someone else car.

its gonna be bad enough when i hit him up to do my car. i know im gonna get the stink eye lol

Ok thanks, I'll keep looking. I have a garage and lift but no power. My garage landlord doesn't allow mechanic work .

I sent a text out to another buddy, haven't heard back yet.

Thanks. Someone recommended Tune Time Performance in Lakewood. Comments about this shop??

[Scottydoggs]

a shop will rape you on the labor i bet. engine swaps are like 5 to 600 if not more, then all the gaskets and fluids you need.

ive heard of that shop, but know nothing about them.

[BillBoost37]

Other buddy got back to me. He asked me to give you his info. I will pm it to you.
