Hey guys I need some help finding a good spot to have a motor swap performed on my 94 toyota pickup. It has a 4.3 v6 in it that I want to swap a v8 in. either a 5.3 or a 5.7 I haven't decided yet. I am located on St. Simons island in southeast georgia and I cannot find anyone locally with enough know how to perform the swap. Any suggestions? In the nearish area Ill take it to a shop I just dont want to drive 10 hours to one.

If you do not find anyone closer, I am at 30002, about five hours. I can do the carb or HEI, I just will not do any donor that is PasslockII related if you are swapping the whole harness, I dealt with that horror show system before.
