I'm looking into getting an engine+tranny from Chesapeake to Blacksburg. Of course there will be monetary compensation if you can do this for me.

I appreciate the offers. It looks like Trailduster79 is planning to do it, but I'll swap phone numbers with you just in case it isn't going to work out for him.

I'll be going home (Suffolk...spittin distance to Chesapeake depending on where you are talking about in Chesapeake) and back up here twice at the end of April/beginning of May in my Suburban. I'd be glad to get it then if you don't work something else out between now and then. Only a minor PITA to get engines in and out of her rear end, but certainly doable (had a 351W in there twice, and a 350 SBC once...)

That sounds like a possibility if its still available by then. We'll see what happens.

I remembered I forgot to post an update about this. The guy selling this stuff decided the engine was trash and tossed it. So it became just a tranny and tcase. Stallings graciously picked it up for me and has been storing it at his place. So, next time someone's up that way, if you've got room for a yota tranny+tcase I've got some $$ for you.

He's in Windsor, which is not too far from Chesapeake, which would be a good bit out-of-the-way for you... But thanks for looking.
