And then if that difference was worth spending on ... or not.
I've been talking to Raby over the past year. Unfortunately, he doesn't offer my car any services. Changing engines from different years is too risky, and unless he builds the block himself from the ground up so that he knows the ins-and-outs, he won't do it. It's highly unfortunate indeed.

He did give me some pricing. My price isn't cheap, but it's competitive to be sure. That's why I'm here talking to you guys.
