hey all,

here is my situation, i have a 90 gl with a bad motor.  i have recently
purhased a new rebuilt 2.1l from boston engine.  the motor is still in its
crate.  i had a mechanic lined up to do the job now, but now he claims he
won't be able to do the project until march and he wants to charge me, get
this, 1200!! freaking dollars to install the damn thing.  the job should be
600 dollars max., $800 if you are vw.  anyways, now i am faced with a
dilema.  i need to find someone in the hudson valley area of new york to
install this engine, or i will sell the brand new rebuilt 2.1l from boston
engine and then sell the 90 shell. all i want to do is install the engine
and then sell the van that has been sitting at my mehanics lot just waiting
to get back on the road.  so, what do i do? does anybody need a rebuilt 2.1
with zero miles on it?  does anyone know a reputable installer in my area
that can do this job?  i am going out of my mind and am so frustrated right
now.  i need this lists' help in dealing with my dilema.  somebody, PLEASE!!
sorry to ramble on
jason
