oppinion

Which is the most reputable shop to buy an engine from I live in Columbus Ga.? I am trying to avoid shipping cost. Also which is the best shop to do my swap in your oppinion by price, time, customer service, and good engine millage?

Jarco doesn't install engines but their clips come with a rear diff

:aw:
Xat Racing Tampa, FL
JGYCustoms Atkins, VA
Jarco Inc Canton, GA
Balanced Performance Motorsports Sugar Hill, GA

JARCO
for sure.
top quality and extremely reputable

also i wouldnt be surprised 1 bit if those other shops got their engines from JARCO because JARCO is a huge importer

[DRFT]

dont know about shops to isntall engines but jarco is the best place to buy your engine from.

[nasty s14]

yea thats what I was thinking to and since jarco is not far I can just drive there and pick it up. Now when they say includs rear diff does that mean an LSD that will fit my 95 240 exactly

[DoriftoSlut]

Fit? It depends on your half shaft flanges. Are they 6 or 5 bolt? If you have the same number of holes correspond between the diff's output shaft and your half shaft... that you are all set.

I know Jarco, if you get a clip and the diff is different, they wioll just swap it with one that will fit. Jarco is a dope business.

Also, Balanced Performance know their shit and do some of the nicest install work i have seen. Need I tell you they are a little pricey? IF you have it, its worht it though.

Well im sold on jarco This will save me from trying to get a J30 diff.

I can get the engine in. My uncle is a great mechanic but I like some of the custom package deals some of the companies have like XAT. Maybe I can get the engine in which I believe is the bulk of the Labor price and get Xat to install my FMIC, exaust, BOV and all the other stuff I want. I really want to make sure I keep my AC and cruise control. Also I need as little down time as possible.

Trying to reduce the price on the install and get as much done In one shot as possible.

What do you guys think.

if you can get the engine in the FMIC and BOV and most of the other crap is easy. hell it should be the other way around. pay to have the engine in and bolt on the other stuff yourself. even a monkey like Dorifto180sx can do it :) AC... wiring and new hardlines. pretty easy too.

[nasty s14]

Well I was concerned about the custom pipe work in putting in the FMIC and the exaust in. I have 4000.00 for the engine and parts. So your saying the wireing isnt that hard. If we start at around 8am my uncle, me, and two of my dawgs (who are also mechanics) can get the Ka out and the Sr20det mounted and in the car in a day. I just want it done right with the least amount of downtime.
