Bay area 5 spd upgrade - recommended shops

[htyei]

Can any one recommend a shop thats done a svx 5 speed swap before in the San Francisco South bay? How much did it run and how happpy were you with the job?

I would love to know of a local (bay area) mechanic for the 5mt conversion too. I plan on changing over to a 5mt when the 4eat dies. If you do get the job done somewhere please post on your results and where you got it done. When I get mine done if I get the work before yours I'll post where I finally went. Good luck man.

Sorry, no help in finding a shop for you guys. Just busting into your thread to let you know some Bay Area folks are kicking around the idea of a meet in Aug. If interested in showing off you pre-5MT SVX :), check out this thread:

GOod luck with the swap. If you don;t come to this meet, definately make it to one after the swap. I'm sure everyone would love to see it.

Gah! another accident to my car that wasn't my fault. And I let the guy go, cuz I didnt see the damage and was late for work Thats three this year. At this point I'm embarrassed to show my poor svx.
