Prodigy, sorry to hear about your car. As to the cost issue however, you can be assured that because it is a custom job you want done, most places will not give you an estimate on it. They may ballpark you if they really feel like it, but as someone who works on these cars on a regular basis, it's near impossible to tell you exactly how long and how much a swap like this will cost. There is an untold amount of minor custominzing, fabircation, and just plain messing around that has to be done to make everything work right. If I give a hard quote, I've got to be very careful to address every single issue that I think I might run into and to that point I still let the customer know that as issues arise there may be changes to the cost. To that end, I'm pretty much getting out of the installation side of things just due to the risks involved.
