Hello, Looking for a shop to do a 5 speed conversion on my 70 Challenger R/T SE. Currently the car is a 470 low deck automatic on the floor car. Due to shoulder issues I wouldn't be able to do most of the heavy lifting. So I'm in search of a good shop to do the work. Looking to do a Tremec TKX 5 speed. I'm located in Nebraska. But would have no problem shipping the car if need be. Any suggestions on a trust worthy shop? Thanks

A couple of years back i would've done it but I am winding things down. I can advise you to stay out of Lincoln, Springfield and off hiway 75 towards Ft. Calhoun. Where are you located ?

Located right outside of Lincoln. But if I could find a good shop to do the work. I'd have no problem shipping the car.
