George will do it for about 1300 labor, you have to find the parts yourself (look to spend about 1000 on the parts)

George's price varies depending on the swap 1K-1.5K or even a little more sounds about right depending on what you want done. There are some choices to be made when your doing the swap, I outline them in the site that weaklink posted above, and those choices will greatly effect how much labor it will take to perform the swap. I drove over 425 miles to have George do the conversion and wouldn't hesitate to recommend someone else drive as far or further since he really is that good.

Thanks for rubbing it in j/k... With the auto I ran 4 times and was in the low 15's and high 14's. Now with the 5 speed I've run low 14's and high 13's. I still can't get anything better than a 2.2 60' time so I know it's all in the way I'm launching. The power is there as indicated by trap speeds from 102-105, I just need to practice.

Thumbs up

hahaha...glad you're a good sport. My seven is at marvelspeed now getting a single turbo put in. We'll see what I run then, probably won't run at all, just sit at the tree with a grenaded tranny-time for a swap! Seriously though, you've built a real nice site, and an even nicer seven. I enjoyed the videos and you have a lot of good content.
