Need shop for rebuild in texas

SO im currently in OMaha, Nebraska. I bought a 88 10th Ae that had been in storage for 9 years. Tried everything to get it to run. But i pretty sure Ill need a rebuild.

Had injectors cleaned, new few pump, filter, new plugs, new wires, oil , removed emissions, and car still not running, just cranks. Had it running one day, around the block a couple of times, then nothing. Well anyways, the car is streetported ( owner said was done by rick stiles in texas), been doing what i can. But in august going back to san antonio for two weeks, so thinking of hauling the car down and having a shop work on it. Want to keep all the price tag small, i know shops charge more to remove engine to car, so not sure if bite the dust and pay that or remove the engine myself and finda way to take that down with the car, and just install. But lookings for a shop to get my baby running.

Where in Texas do you want it worked on? San Antonio maybe? Let us know.. it's a damn big state.

Well in D/FW you have Rotary Performance and Gotham Racing and BDC as a privateer.

Rotary Performance doesn't technically do "repair" work on FC's but if your looking to have some tuning or other top work done they might be able to help.

BDC is a TII guru and would be placed high ony my short list of people to contact.

Not sure who you have in San Antonio since Alamo Rotary closed.

BDC does great work and tuning. Definately go to him. He ported/helped me rebuild my first motor with a T04E, then tuned it fantastic.

I could give it a try. May have to borrow your brain and hands for part of it.
