Need Mechanic in woodbridge for D16Y7 Head Swap or Full D16Y7 Motor Swap
The Car, Old Motor and New Motor are all in my garage right now. Im in woodbridge. Need someone to come put it all together for me. The reason I say possible whole swap is because im betting on a Bent Valve as apposed to Rod Knock. I have a vid of the noise. So if you are interested in making some money doing a swap and drinking a few beers let me know. Or if you know a good shop in the area let me know.
Thanks
Thanks

Still looking for some help. Would rather have someone willing to just swap the whole motor. I've had some offers from a few people in mississauga but its also going to cost me a FAR tow from woodbridge. So anyone else a little closer to home want to do a D16Y7 Swap?

besides the whole cherry picker part why not do it your self ??? i did my first swap 2 months ago and it wasn t that bad.
if you want to get it going take off the wiring harness, get the front on jack stands, remove the tires, remove axles nuts, release the lower ball joint, and pull the axles.
Once that all done all you ll have to do is prep the motor, remove the old motor, transfer the tranny, drop the new one back in, reassamble all the stuff mentioned above, and fluids
just make sure you rent a ball joint separator and do not use a pickle fork you ll end up ripping every boot and have to replace them... $$$
Finding someone to help pick the motor out, and put it back in will be easier then finding someone to do the entire thing
