New Shop with New Rules
I have finally found a garage to rent in Philly. it is not much but it will be sufficient for what I need. After Thanksgiving it will be open for business and I will be able to work on SVXi as well as other Subies. I will also be making my 5/6mt kits here. So for anyone interested, I will be open once again for SVX work, now with no contraints as to which jobs I can take besides the ones I make (no more old man *****ing about cars at the house). I will need help setting up the garage with new welders, cutters, and tool boxes. So any work that someone may want to be done will help me speed the process of getting my shop established. So, by all means, contact me about anything including tranny swaps, engine swaps, modifications and MUCH MUCH more
  Tom

Move your shop to Milwaukee and I'll set you up with welders, cutters, and tool boxes.

Glad to see you finally got a shop. Now you can make some extra $$$. I'll be sure to send my mom your way if she ever needs anything.

Thanks guys. Unfortunately I doubt this new place will "make" me any money. Infact it will take a long time to pay off all the new tools I have to buy to make it worth while... So this is where I have to ask, does anyone know of people with some of the following tools for sale?
Mig welder Tig/stick welder Plasma cutter angle grinders Tool boxes(good ones, not crap) Drill press The rest I will be picking up soon, like materials for me to make a work bench. I think I have an extra vice at home, if not I can always get one... It sure is a good thing I have a Harbor Freight 20 minutes away Tom

Plasma cutters are expensive as hell, probly better off getting a decent oxy-acytelene torch so you can cut and heat to bend
I have a pretty simple straight forward tranny swap you can do to help get the ball rolling Lemme know if you need any help otherwise, and good luck
