Sure? We need more info than that. Why do you want it? What do you drive? What year is it? you search the forums already? What is the meaning of life? Help us help you.

So an LS motor, like the Chevy V8 engine? Good luck fitting it in there. You're gonna need a whole lotta supporting mods for that one, not the least of which is a new computer. I'd say you can bet on adding at least another zero to that price tag.

Re: LS swap question

He is referring to a b series engine. Did you call local junk yards for price comparison?

$200 sounds like a good deal to me. That's one of Honda's best engines. Does that price include block and head? Accessories like Ps pump, alternator, etc.

I would just take the time to rebuild everything and clean it up nice since it has 135K miles.
