it's also the initial cost of swapping the b into the civics, especially EF's. Mounts, Linkage, Axles, misc wiring ----.

you basically spend the same on Misc crap as you do the engine iteself.

psh; you think I would PAY for mounts and linkage? I have a welder; axles i can go into autozone and use the lifetime warantee on mine and swap them out with integra axles :p helps having friends that work there. and wiring will fit; it doesn't look any different than the d16a6 or z6 i've had in there. car is already MPFI and wired for VETAK

you guys have it made! I've been hunting for a ls block or a b20 block for 3 years, no luck, and when I found them on ebay no one wants to ---- to APO adress, I have a b16 bare block if anyone wants to trade for a b18 bare block and crank. I am willing

you gotta know people thast how you find the deals. Junk yards in some cases will screw you for all your worth and mainstream markets like ebay or big boards will cost more.
Just network some more :) find some local people and branch out
