3.8 turbo Motor

[Josh Beacock]

Hey I'm looking for a complete motor for my grand national preferably in the 3000.00$ range. My motor took a shit and figured I might as well just buy a new one then part the old one out. Lmk if you know anybody that builds them or has one close to me as well I'm in Modesto California thanks anything is appreciated

Josh, you are about 5.5 hours from Lake Forest, CA where Lou's Auto Service is. Lou is a vendor/ sponsor here on the board who guys in this area trust with their cars wholeheartedly. He will build you something great if he doesn't have one on the stand ready. He usually works with guys on a budget as best he can, but won't cut corners. Look in the kills section. There are a few famous kill'ers from SoCal with Lou's motors. Mean chicken and Mike B are a few of them.

949-770-6479 is his work # iirc.

Don't say to yourself that is too far of a drive either. You will NOT be disappointed, and I would make that drive or longer if I needed help and Lou was there.

Ok I will give him a call for sure. Yeah he's been recommended before just didn't know how to get ahold of him. I know it's not a really long way but I would have to have it towed all the way there which would probly be outrageously priced. I will give him a call today though thanks for the info man

Uhaul rents car trailers for less than $100 if you have a truck or know someone, and even rents trucks. If i were closer, i would help you out brother.

Glad you got your car there. You should be set up real nice now. Sure you don't want to sell a kidney or something and have Lou build you a stroker?

Just kidding, get her back on the road where you can enjoy her! Let me know if Lou runs into any issues or needs a part or something. Surely someone nearby can help out.
