Florida

any of you Flo-Ride-a residents have a decent slant 6 engine with an automatic to help me out? i started my Swinger up today and heard some bearings for a second until the oil caught up with it! it will only get worse and altho i would like to put a different engine in it another SL/6 will go in quickly. i think my tranny is about shot too. makes a great boat anchor!
anybody? ...sometimes i see them given away (wouldn`t that be great!)
i hope its ok that i posted here for parts. i`m in Tampa, Fl. and looking for parts semi local.
thanks for reading (Speedy)
