Well everyone, I've had just about enough of working nights, and several other things have gotten me seriously thinking about going fulltime out in the shop. For one thing, I'm tired of my job, and I really want to be able to dedicate more time out in the shop so that I can turn these swaps out faster. Plus, I want more flexablility in my own life.

That said, I'm now actively working towards making Phoenix Tuning a fulltime shop. I've already registered the business in the state of VT, and most of the related paperwork is taken care of.

Plans for the future include more engine swaps, developing turbo kits and other performance parts for the '90s and newer Celicas and Corollas, and eventually other cars, along with doing wiring harness conversions. I may dabble in buying, fixing, and selling cars as well, if those things don't keep me busy enough.

So, if you've thought about having an engine swap done, but you need it done quicker than a timeframe that I've previously given you, now's the time to hit me up again. And please spread the word!

Right now the launch date is looking to be in the next 4-5 months or so, by that time I'll have all of my debt paid off and the last of the tools that I need bought. So, end of May is the preliminary date!

-Doc

BTW DOC? What would be a price on an 4AGZE + tranny + ECU + FUEL PUMP, sold to me by you when you go fulltime? Don't answer on the boards, just e-mail me directly at: gusto395@optonline.net
As you know, I have a 1993 AE102 Corolla LE with the AE111 rear brake conversion and the AE111 REAL HOOD SCOOP as well. Just ready for the 4AGZE in a few months, just had my car painted.

Congrats doc, I'll be keeping in touch with engine swaps and/or rebuilds. You should name your shop "Dr. Tweak's Monster Garage":lol:
