Default NorCal shop to do conversion?

Hey, as you might've noticed from other threads, I'm planning a conversion, putting an LS1 into my '78 TransAm.

I have 1 shop that said they'd do it (RST Automotive in Fremont). I was wondering if anyone either had experience with them or had a recommendation for another shop.

Yeah, sorry to confuse everyone. If you look at the cars we deal with, you will see the majority is LS1. Hope this helps.

Yes, what are you looking for? IE...built, stock, viper internals?

Hi Rick,

I actually called last week, no one was there. I figured you guys were out on vacation. I called again this morning and got the answering machine again. I left a message this time.

I'm trying to get this sorted out quickly, so if you can, it would be great if you could give me a call. I'll PM you my phone #.

Thanks,
Dave
