Hey, what's up guys... I'm in the process of a complete overhaul for my '99 SVT. One of the last and final steps to the project is the 3L installation. I'm going Hybrid  ... so, for me... just simply swaping in the 3L block. I live in Tampa bay. I wanted to know if there's anyone in the southeast that would like to come and help me one weekend... like, a friday through sunday... putting the block in. There's free room and board... I"ll take ya out on the town at night... my mom is a badA$$ cook  ... and there's a decent pile of money in it for you too. I'm very mechanicly inclined (4th year engineering major) and have the tools... just have never done it before to the Contour... and would like some assistance  . If anyone or two of you would like to come help for a long weekend... it would be a great time and a great help. Part of this whole process is getting my car fixed after the accident... u can read about it here.... The Accident TIA

How big is the decent pile of money? I'm quitting work August 1st and if you still haven't done it by then and if you think I would be of use to you (I don't have any knowledge of engine swapping but I definitely can lend a hand and obviously know how to do some work to cars) I could possibly do it. Probably not, but maybe...
