I want to have a 6 swap done and wanted to know what kind of pricing or is there someone in California to call and get an idea of what it will take?

Just a word of warning/my sordid tale...
I bought my 914 in 1992. I loved that car. I bit the bullet and did a conversion back in 2011-12. I never finished it completely - all it needed was the shift linkage addressed. But at that point, I couldn't even stand to look at the car anymore and sold it. Not to be a wet sock, but my conversion basically tanked a 20 year love affair. If I had left it alone, it would still be in my garage. Just an FYI... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Attached image(s)
