Question Shop Recommendation for VR6 Swap?

Wondering who in Brandon/Riverview/Tampa area would be able to do a swap on a '00 GTI VR6? My current motor has 178k and looking at acquiring a 60k VR6 from a '01 but did not know what shops have experience in such a swap? Any tips are appreciated for me to contact- thanks!

If you'd like a cheaper option I'd get ahold of Les at Eurotech, kind of a dick but if you can look past that he's not bad. The address is 4013 W Osborne Ave., Tampa, FL33614. I only give you that because Im not sure if his number is still the same... (813) 879-9863
