i live in saskatoon, and have to rebuild my engine as well. although i do not have a garage i will be doing most of the work myself. I spun a bearing a few weeks ago. A friend of mine in regina and i are going to be putting the engine back together.

Anyway there should be a get together of saskatoon people. Boston pizza or something along the lines easy drinks and food.

I think he's actually talking about doing it himself... not taking it anywhere.

I wouldn't mind meeting up with some other saskatoon stangers

You could cut that price down buy not buying new pistons. You have forged ones now and with a good clean-up they'll be good for about 400-450 hp. It means no overbore but you can still rehone the cylinders. I know it's not the best way to rebuild a motor but it works and if done right will give another 200,000 km's of life to the engine.

havent been on here in a bit...so that $1400 is you doing all the labour... thought there would be a good shop that wasn't charging too much for engine rebuild...
