I agree as well about having problems getting somebody else to work on a
converted vehicle. In fact, this sentence/warning is on my website:


***************begin paste**************
A word of warning to potential "swappers": Once you convert the engine, be
prepared to do all the future
repair and maintenance work yourself. Many professional mechanics will not
work on a converted vehicle
unless they were the one who did the conversion.
