Good place to do an Integra swap?

I'm looking for a new car and came across a nice theft recovery 2001 integra gsr for a good price. The car is missing the drive train and seats they said. Now I can buy a cheap motor like a b18b from ebay for less than 1200CAD. How much it cost for labour for the swap? What other engines can i put in there? I know about the b18c but are there any other engines i can put in? Whats a good reliable, respectable shop in toronto that does good engine swap work?

I'm new to the car mod world. There are a few engines list on ebay that says complete swap. Do I still need to buy a tranny with that though?

Thanks.

install for an integra motor into an integra is around 650-800 on average for labour in toronto.

i would recommend asking around 1st before you jump at the cheapest price you hear...there are alot of horror stories out there with shanty work that just adds up to being more money time and alot of frustration.

that is why i want to find the best place possible. i don't want to spend too much but if the price is reasonably higher for the quality i would go with that.

I wouldn't feel comfortble myself buying an engine off e-bay. There are a few JDM importers around the GTA. Look in the phone book. YOu can probably find one with a full front clip so you can varify the mileage and pic up the JDM front end too (love the one piece lights). Also if you have problems you can go back to the shop and tell them about it. Make sure to change the timing belt prior to install. Try speedtech for install.
