Re: What do you think?

They are building up a name for themselves on Ebay, http://feedback.ebay.com/ebaymotors/...d=190174340980
i'd trust them. But i would call them first to see if they answer their phone, then i would also get their address if anything went wrong. But still, engine no tranny axles or n e thing, yea i'd trust them also ask for more pics to be sent to your email.

its just the 160hp k20.

Re: What do you think?

it's the k20a3 like LT said. if that is what you want, you might be able to find one cheaper than that, but that really isn't too outrageous for it.

Re: What do you think?

its a decent price i guess... 40k-60k? lol thats a big range if u think about it.. they should be able to narrow it down a little more than that. if you have the cash for it.. sure why not. its only a k20a3.. nothing special.. definately better than the d17 lol.. i mean u could always throw a k20a2 head on it... i think.. or supercharge that.

Re: What do you think?

not bad but they have the title completely wrong and dont mention anything about shipping, prolly cause it costs almost as much as the buy price

Re: What do you think?

i think that is a good decision. you could also look at hmotorsonline, they have full swaps for sale. they are going to cost you a lot more, but they come with a lot of the stuff you need for the swap.
