Sierra engine swap wire job
Posted: Sat Jul 17, 2010 2:41 am
Hey guys just wondering who you all have used in sydney to do the wiring on your engine 1.6 swops. Are any of you auto sparkys? I have talked to a few sparkys that say ya I can do it but have never done it before. I want some one that has done a few before.
Yes I know there is a guy on ebay that will do it but he is wanting WAY to much he quoted me (without shipping) $350 for the basics the a further $200 for the extention as mine is a balino. Now that is not a bad price if he was here doing it on the car and making sure it worked and was here but a ship in ship out to me is way to much.
Now I am a Snap on dealer and I can pull a favor here and there and the sparky I asked said he would come out and do it for $250 some lunch and a 6pack but he has never done it befor and that scares me. I have heard of a few people doing it for $500 as a turn key job.
What have you all done. Do any of you want to come make some money?
I have everything to do the job and honestly I could do it my self as I am fairly good with wiring but I want it to be as close to perfect as possible.
I will have the engine in the sierra and the harness ready to be worked next weekend let me know what you guys have done.
