newbie help, tried search found nothing

heres the deal. a long time ago i came to a meet with you guys up in north jersey. i have(had) a supercharged 2002 civic si. few days ago a *** pulled out in front of me, and totaled the car. heres the deal, i am gonna buy a 03 ex in a few days. do any of you know of a shop in or near NJ that will swap a rsx s motor in it for me? right now i'm just looking to find a place that i can drive my car there they get the ****, and do the swap. any info would be great. also whats the average price for a swap like this at shops both if you have the motor and if they buy the motor.

thanks,
dave

why would u want to do a swap if u planning getting a new car. I mean a ex = 17k-18k + 8k for swap = $25k. Why not just go buy a RSX-S
