They are great guys but I think they are slammed. Ive called several shops and nobody will give me a quote. Im not willing to just drop my car off without some idea of what the total cost will be.

Good shops will be busy this time of year. Everyone wants their car ready for spring. You might need to wait a while for that good shop, which might be well worth the wait. I would advise against being impatient and going to a shop that is less qualified.
Depending upon what part of the state you are in you might expand your search area to VA, SC, or TN.
Like I said before contact Martin if they can't do it maybe he will suggest someone who can.

Thanks for the advice. I am not in a hurry and just want it done right. I know they can do the work. At this point im not sure if I want to do a carb or FI either so I would like an idea of cost on both.

Id only use LS1 Excitement for LS swaps. He did my swap in my 300zx and was the first in the country to do it with a T56 and not cut the firewall. He does swaps into anything. Literally. Toyota 4-runner, any late model car, muscle car, and on and on. Thats his specialty. Tick Performance and LS1 Excitement work together a lot and refer customers to each other if one can't do it. Both great shops to work with.

Hey Quick if you don't mind traveling a little I have a small shop That I do that kind of work in. I'm in Winchester VA. Here is a pic of our work. It's a termi swapped notch that has been restored. More of a restomod really. I have a Lq9 3rd gen in my shop now that I am making a new trans crossmember and a y pipe for a guy.

Same car, it needed the entire floor replaced.
