Plenty of options.

I did hours of research for weeks on several swap shops in the West GTA; got 20 quotes from local garages (all within a 15 km radius around the 400 & 401 area). Cross referenced a few important criteria (reputation & experience / motor quality / proximity / price / ...) & finally decided on Altech Performance.

Joe Conde took good care of the build (D16y to D15b swap) over 2 days during October & I haven't had a problem since. He's very knowledgeable & did high quality work quickly for a competitve price. Solid bet; strongly recommended.
