i along with many people on this board got my engine from www.hmotorsonline.com they are very good, quick shipping, and the engines are legit, i tore mine down and there was clearly a newer engine, not like 100k on it.

I bought mine from Hmotorsonline as well. Unfortunately I don't have the space or tools to do the install myself, so I had inline pro do it for me, and they were amazed at how good of shape, and clean the engine was. (I pick it up tomorrow so I've yet to drive it) But in a convo with Inline yesterday they told me it was finished, I was half expecting them to insult the engine a little because I had declined to use one of their engines and also declined extra things they wanted to do, but to my suprise they raved at how strong the engine was when they took it for a spin. So so far I'd say I'm very happy, having visually inspected myself upon arrival, and from inlines comments, I'll post how it drives tomorrow. By the way I bought a b16a Sir1, with a Y1 tranny (w/lsd), axles, ecu, hasport mounts and linkage, shipped to MD for $2200

I got my civic type r from www.inlinefour.com, shipped in 4 days, and came with more than an hmotorsonline engine comes with from what I've seen/heard. $4000 for the engine, $450 shipping. It came with axles, limited slip, ecu, wiring harness, alternator ($250-$300 part anywhere else), intake&exhaust manifold, all sensors, and all hoses/wires were pulled off the doner car instead of snipped/torn apart. To say I was impressed would be an understatement. A compression test showed ~210 across all four cylinders (beyond perfect).

Thats kool I want to get the b16a sir 1 to and turbo that but without a lsd and stuff I cant afford that just yet. Let me know how it is. And how much did you pay to have the motor installed at the shop? And you got the LSD and hasport motor mounts all for $2200 shipped? dont they want $1500 just for the complete swap and than another $600 for the LSD and mounts? I clicked on the add to shopping cart button on the site and there it only showed the complete swap was only like $1100 or $1200 Please let me know.

Just picked the car up today, pleased is now an understatement. I don't know how I ever enjoyed driving that car before the swap. I'm actually about to go back out, just came in to check on a few things and the computer beckoned me to check my mail. But anyway the engine is nice.
Call and talk to steve, let him know what your interested in. He can work it all up for you. Should be like $1150 for the complete engine and swap kit, then $300 for the lsd, like $500-600 for the mounts and linkage, then like $200-$250 for shipping.:iceslolan
