There seems to be another 3800 S/C in Ottawa.

I saw that.  I'd be really impressed that the shop was offering to take everyone on a free 'fast' drive with my car.   :'(

I forgot to ask..... how's the new GT?  Bet you look like this  ;D

It's going great with the new GT, had a little problem last sunday, it wouldn't start. I pulled out the starter, but it was fine, ended up being the safety neutral switch, still starts in neutral. In a couple of days I was back to looking like this ;D ;D ;D.

Two main problems one consider the rep of the shop and two that is not the price on a completed swap just the bare minimum if you want to finish it your self or pay an unknown amount more to make drivable.
I do the swap for $3,000 cash, that includes all my labour for a complete job. I also supply the mounts and brackets required to make the 3800SC work properly and reliably in a Fiero. I also have been known to do extras at no extra fee while car is here and apart. The last one I installed a rear sway bar, replaced all metal brake lines and did all labour to get car through a legitamite safety check. Not too bad for $3,000 plus my personal guarantee on my work.

Like Dan said. The job was done on time and as expected at the agreed upon price. No cost overruns like a lot of shops. Can't get much better than that.

I'd recomend Dan over Race Tech any day.
