Watch out of indies most are a sham.
I still own a 1996 FB and will never part with it.
I know they are unbreakable when done right. I'm just really weary of shelling out big bucks to someone I don't know unless they know this engine and have a proven setup.

Thanks, just a wee bit too far(3 hours-ish). Would like to try and find someone closer first. But I will keep him in mind when all else fails. I wanted to swap in an engine that is running while I work over the original one. This is why I'm asking to see what my options are.
