"Cheap" and "TII swap" doesn't compute man.

the motor alone ranges from $800 to $1000... but to tell you the truth, i did mine myself.. its not hard at all.. the rotary's are so simple to work on (until you open them up) but if your stayin on the outside then it shouldnt be hard.. i swap my T2 engine into my vert and it was automatic when i started the swap.. so i kinda went through hell but i love my car now

OO wats up man, It actually went like a Nightmare. I got it back from Jim without doing a full rebuild and after a nicely spent 1800$ she blew up the next morning.

But, i bucked up and did it right this time. Got a full rebuild, Bridgeport and some super seals, im gonna pick up the motor in about two weeks so im excited.

How bout u?
