I need to know where I can get one, its a 90 civic hatch dx. We were gonna rebuild the one in it but it's gonna cost a lot of money so we're pricing engines instead but where would I start? I tried a search on here but found nothing but Auto Solutions and their website needs help.

Two places.

1) Trading Post. Countless people are selling engines or complete junked cars. The only down side is some of the engines aren't in the cars and the people selling them have no way to demostrate. But you never know what you'll find. I saw a REAL Ford 427ci V-8 in there one day for $600. In perfect running order that engine can cost upwards of $15,000+ since it is a real 427 and not a 460 conversion.

2) The salvage yards on Rte 17 in York County. Keegans is a really good place to go. They, like many yards, have a database of yards all over the US, you tell them the years of what you want and they can pull a list that has miliage, price, etc.... If the engine isn't local they can have it shipped with very little transportation charges. Going this route can usually get you a 90 day warrenty too.

Don't go for that bullshit "JDM" crap. Unless its an engine that wasn't actually sold here like say a Mazda KL-ZE V-6. Because otherwise it's marketing BS to drive the price up on people with more money than knowledge.

You should be able to get the stock replacement engine for your car for less than $1,000 from a yard on Rte 17. And if you really look you could probably get it for around $300 in the Trading Post.

By the way if you need machine work done I would recommend Duncan's machine shop on Jefferson Ave a few blocks past Mercury Blvd on the right side of the road if you are going towards downtown.

They are expensive, but hands down the best shop around in terms of quality and turn around time.

But if you take a block or head to them it has to be completely stripped of EVERYTHING or they will turn you down.

wow thanks Cuda. We were lookin for a machine shop too, theres a dent where the intake manifold conects to the head, looks like someone got pissed and beat it, we think thats why oil was leaking into the intake manifold and shit, the engine was pretty bad when we got it.
