Here you go Chris. I can crate it and ship it for you. Or you guys could just move over here and problem solved.

wow dan, that sounds pretty sweet. I was however looking to do a 2.5L swap. I know mileage will go down, but i would consider that motor. what you think the shipping would look like over the lake? It sounds super tempting
