I have no idea how much labour costs range for putting a B-series into a CRX.

Where should I go, and do you know of any places that will give the best price?

All they have to do is perform their magic, I bring all the parts!

I know of Defcon, but something tells me they're gonna charge a lot...

Share any knowledge/experience you have

lol this sounds kinda unrealistic because a regular repair bill can rup up to $800 easily. i was thinking the minimum cost of a swap will be around $1600 and up....anyway, i will ask in the want to buy section.

thanks

You won't find anyone else around that'll do a better job for such a good price!

Ask for Dave :thumbsup:

if you want qaulity stick with defcon, dave does good work, if you want the right mounts, good wiring the exhaust done right....ect. stick with dave

remember you get what you pay for and that car is old too, the swap isnt going to go as smoothly as if it was a new car so you want somone who's going to repair it right and make sure its safe
