Re: where can i get an ls1 conversion done near fl??
I would start by going to any speed shop (Place that sells stuff for american cars, not imports) Those guys usually know of shops that specialize in that sort of thing. Also, you could check with engine rebuilding shops and restoration shops.
Good luck!

Jaysz28: did you do the swap yourself? How much did you spend in parts? I am looking at having a shop do mine.

Re: where can i get an ls1 conversion done near fl??
I did most of it myself
Had to have a shop fabricate the y-pipe, install SFC's and the BMR tq arm
Z28RICER did a great job getting everything wired up, from the motor, to the ac and even the cruise control.......

I'll have complete new harnesses for PNP LS1 swaps here shortly, as soon as some things arrive and I get jay to leave his car with me for a day or so 
If anyone wants to PM me, I may consider doing a full swap or two, I do have a TIG as well as MIG now, and have done quite a few thirdgen swaps.
