Na to turbo?

Post by chambers360 »

Last year i crashed my rev3 turbo its mainly all fixed up but the wheels slightly off center in the arch, i local performance garage is going to check it over on monday but they suspect possible chassis damage, coupling this with the fact the car desperately needs a respray im thinking of buying a n/a woth a solid chassis and body and swapping the engine from the tubby into it, so my question is, as i have neother the time or knowledge to do this myself how much would labour charges be roughly to do the conversion?

Try phoning one of the recognised affiliates such as Woodsport and ask them for a price.

Straight forward swap since you have both cars.

its not so much the price but who can do it. get a price of woodsport and go from there its probably cheaper to buy a new car and sell the old one as an engine and gearbox.
