Hey guys,
I'm getting into a part of my project that may be more technical than my google educated wrenching skills are up for.

Any recommendations on good shops or mobile mechanics in the area to finish up an engine swap?

It's not so much the Landy bits, it's the engine swap and wiring

Everything is bolted in place, but I can't find much good info on getting the chev 4.3 {2006) set up and running

Are you using the GM fuel injection, or gone to a carb?

Rob,

The ecm for the 4.3 needs a 12V switched power source as well as a 12V hot power source (direct from battery).
I am not sure which pins they are to the ecm. Do you have a year for the engine as well as which GM is came out of? do you have the GM wiring harness?
I might have some info for you when I come to Victoria first week of spring break.
