Here is the deal... I contacted them, because they have a 'special' going on.

It seems they have Redtops installed for 2250, and blacktops for 2350.

I have a stock single cam, and here are some questions I asked them.

I saw your craigslist ad for s13 sr20det blacktop swap installed for 2300.

I had a few questions about this.

When you do the swap into a 1990, will the tachometer/speedometer still work?
Do you charge extra to put on a Front Mount intercooler, if the customer brings it in?
Most importantly, I know that the powersteering lines are different from the ka24e. Will the swap have powersteering?
What type of warranty do you offer on your installs? For example, most shops offer a 30 day warranty for no knocking/blown headgasket. Do you do this also?

Thanks for your response!

We can do all the tests on the motor before install, so you know what you
are getting. We can replace the head gasket before the swap so there will
be no worries, but that will be extra.

So basically... they are saying, that if they do the swap. And it starts up knocking like crazy... you are SOL, because it's only a 'startup' warranty?

It seams there is another shop 'Team Clockwork' Doing blacktop swaps for 2800, and here is what they say

Is this really the case? Does anyone have experience with either of these shops to say that they wouldn't be like 'TOO BAD USED MOTOR SUCKER'?
