Local places to buy Japanese engines?
I am looking for an engine for one of my cars and I have found a few good choices online but I would rather not pay freight if I don't need to. Are there good places in VA/NC to get used Japanese engines?

I've had great luck with them both.
Also, it's a myth that most engines from japan are low milage. The truth is the average 10yr old engine has about 100k miles on it. Don't buy into this 30-40k milage thing.

I would try noyan (if they even still sell engines at this point) or JEI

Why are they allowed to be sold as low mileage engines if they really are not? I guess we have no real way of finding out? I really don't care if the engine is a US market engine or a Jap market engine...they come with the same power output, I was just looking the jap route because of the mileage factor.
