Yeah, checked out www.hmotorsonline.com last night - unbelieveable!
$3300 for the new motor, mounts, tranny, ecu, everything! I checked out redline too, but from the link you posted, I only got the audio part without any links anywhere. Anyway, who's got experience with Hmotorsonline? What's the shipping gonna cost me? Will I get any directions? Warranties? Shipping time? Do I have to buy bolts, gaskets? Are they pretty reputable? These are used engines, what risk do I run of getting a crappy one? Alot of questions I know, but for $3300, I wanna know all I can thanks everyone -wheel

I dunno, I guess I have some reservations about mail ordering an engine. What kind of support is there for an order? Can I call a customer service line if I have trouble with the install? What if a part is missing? Basically, I need info about them from people that have dealt with them. I'm gonna call the BBB on Monday, and see what they have to say about it.

if you need directions... stop now and take your car to a shop. you shouldnt even touch it. warrantie... jack and you wont get one on any used engine... but they do have a startup warrantie.. meaning the motor WILL START! and run. shipping time.. delayed right now cause of x-mas but prolly like a week. no risk of getting a crapy one. and for the do you have to buy shit... yeah they tell you in their warrantie statement. " All motors sold on hmotorsonline.com come with a 100% start-up warranty only and is sold as is. Motors come with all sensors intact unless noted or notified to the customer or ad description. Start up warranty is only valid on USED, JDM & USDM motors and is unconditional when changing the following engine components:- spark plugs, spark plug wires (leads), rotor, timing belt, water pump and tension pulley. All of the previously mentioned have to be changed on JDM & USDM motors to become legible for the 100% start-up warranty. Purchaser/user assumes all costs and risk to the motor and components if prior mentioned items were not changed, the 100% start-up warranty becomes void. " and they test the motors to make sure they work.

94civicdude, if you want your car to be fast, take it to a shop, lay down about $5000 then ask them for either a b18c1 or a h22a, your choice. h22a may be alittle more

Do you want to do a motor swap? If so, you can get a D series vtec motor for about $500 at a junkyard. Or you can do the LSvtec swap for a little over $1000. I would recommend an acura integra gsr motor, B18C1, which is about $3300. You could probably turbocharge your motor for about $1500 and get some good speed out of it.

94CivicDude did you read the earlier half of this thread?
You and I are in the same boat my friend, want bigger engine for littler money. read the earlier parts of this thread, and go check out the FAQ and the links everyone has posted on here. They have all provided me with a wealth of info. I decided to go with a B18c1 (GSR) from www.hmotorsonline.com yeah, I think Im gonna make the commitment. Good luck Civicdude, you should be able to find all the info you need around this forum.

I can't believe that I'm replying to this, civicdude, honestly, there are smarter people for this than I, hopefully they'll catch anything I mess up.
But from what I've seen in recent research, the cost is relative to what you want. You mentioned a CRV engine. I've heard some god things about a CRV block with a head swap from a _________ (look a few posts back, I can't remember which head to use H22?) That could be somewhat pricy, but the only con's I've heard have been the usual not sure about the frankenstein engine. Cost really depends on what you want, and what you need to handle your upgrade plans. Go check out www.hmotorsonline.com 91AcrdMan gave me the low down on that  look up there. And I was pretty impressed by all the engines, stuff you need to make them work, and the inexpensiveness of all the stuff.For the B18c1 that I want to get, after shipping and install, including all the wheel, brake, suspension, and exhaust upgrades Im looking at about $5k. Not bad for everything that's goin into my lil' booger of a car. Good luck with all. And for those following the thread, Im lookin at the end of spring for the install and upgrades...beleive me, you'll all hear about it once I get goin. In the meantime, I have some other do-it-yourself questions, but that is for another thread. -wheel
