what is a general ball park estiment for a gsr swap, the labor. Im sure it depends on the shop or where ever you take it but whats a general estiment. Im thinking of going ahead and swapping soon since im going to have the money in a month or two

VTEC swap with VTEC wiring , retaining PS and AC is $1000 from BG. Thats a COMPLETE ENGINE SET TO ENGINE SET swap (That means motor, trans)
If its a longblock swap it runs $1200 because i have to swap your clutch, trans, starter, over to the new longblock and that takes longer.
most SHOPS will charge 10-15 hours of labor for an engine swap.
labor rates cary of course,.

Im not sure im going to keep the car long enough to want to put a swap into it, im trying to decide of i want to get something else after a while. Kinda wanting to go rear wheel drive. want a lil more power withs something behind it.
