Good price for engine swap??

silver_96 · January 20th, 2007, 04:48 PM

I am putting a 2000 gt engine in my 96 gt and i wanted to know what would be a good price to pay for the work ??? Its just the engine no tranny

well Id say around $1,100 would be a fair price but if you doo it yourself it would save you $$$

get a can of BREAK LOOSE. Everytime i take apart any exhaust piece I always have a can of that penatrating spray just hit it a couple times with the spray let it sit and then hit it again and it should be a lot more easy

I had some kind of spray i dont think it was called break loose. Its the bolt right by the starter so its hard to get too.

I know the exact bolt you are speaking of. Take the starter off first (also a pain in the ass), and it will come out.
