I'm looking for a shop to swap my 3.8 for a 5.3 LS. I live in Austin, Texas. I have called around, and I can't find a mechanic who has done one of these on a JK yet.

Does anyone know of a shop near Austin with the experience?

Also, does anyone know if there is a market for a low mileage 3.8 and 4 speed? I'm wondering what kind of salvage value they might have.

Have you tried Krawltex?

You mite want to call Motech in Los Vegas and see if they have an installer in TX.

Have you tried Lunatic Customs or Screamin Lizards ? Both are located in the Dallas area. There is also Texas Truck Performance in Texas City. When I was there the guy was dropping a Chevy 402 big block into a TJ.

I would hold onto it and put it on Craigslist.

Give Performance Truck Products a look, they are always looking into doing something new with jeeps

Have Motech hook you up with John in Helena Alabama..... (or PM me for his info.)

i'm close to doing a 5.3 as well.....

just curious, please give your reasons why you are choosing Chevy LS vs another type: Hemi, 4BT or whatever.
