Connecticut Shops?
 
Hey all, I spend most of my time in the 80-86 threads, but figure the CT Chapter was a better spot for this question.

Im looking to do an engine & transmission replacement this fall and was hoping to get some help as far as finding a good garage. Ive done all my other repairs and replacements myself so far, but I just plain do have the space or tools from something this big.

Im also considering rebuilding my 302 rather than replacing, so any suggestions on a shop that can do a decent mild performance rebuild would be appreciated as well.

Im in New Hartford (Litchfield County), but would be willing to drive a bit for someone that will do a solid job for an affordable price.

I spent through first or second grade in New Hartford. It exists. Right next to Barkhamsted where my parents are.

Greg, If your parents are still in barkhamsted, does that mean you went to regional?

Of course, class of '96.

I graduated in '97. Somehow ended back here about 4 years go. Would live in Colebrook if I could ever convince the wife it really isnt that far out in the middle of nowhere.

It is close to the middle of nowhere ;)
