Default motor swap in tomball/magnolia area $$

I am swaping a motor in Magnolia close to 2920 and Cypress Rosehill area, and could use some help. I have a lift and tools, but no time to get the swap done before I have to be back in Kyle for work Thursday. I am still putting the new motor together, so I am really short on time. I am pulling the exhaust and all the accessories tonight and hopefully get the swap done by tomorrow evening. I am having some health issues and really need the help, but will pay for experienced help.

Thanks
Kevin

You can not expect everyone to drop what they are doing in the middle of the week to come help you put a motor in. You are giving less than a 24 hour notice asking for help. If you would have posted this a few days eariler then I'm sure someone would have been able to help...

I didn't expect anyone to drop what they were doing! This was targeted toward those who might be in need of a short term/contract opportunity. I thought paying someone $400-$500 would have been easy money. The fact that no one took me up on it is fine. Have a good day!

You never stated you was willing to pay that much in the beginning. Most people that say they are willing to pay is only wanting to give up as little as possible.

Hopefully you got it done...
