Im looking to buy my first motor SR swap. Im located here in texas, so I just need something around here thats affordable and has some good creditbility under their belt.

I know about Heavy Throttle, but want to search some more too.

Any help appreciated.

Heavy Throttle

since Jazz is in state might as well try driving up and getting a feel for the company and what they have.

any bad vibes or sketchy shit then run out asap.

yup, the best way to do business with local shops, get to know them and let them get to know you. Local is best first stop since you may be visiting quite often.

if your local shops are junk then start searching around your region for the nearest reputable provider
