Where did you guys get your engines and please write what your overall experience was? Was the engine missing parts? did it blow up when you started it? Worn, bad engine? Oh also list the engine you got.

depending on wut your aiming for, like just a motor swap or if ur actually trying to build a race motor. ud have to look different ways. motor swaps are usually just grabbing the motor and depending on wut uve come from like SOHC to a DOCH u also gotta buy the tranny and , so the motor would be more complete, but if ur replacing the motor with usuable part u would jsut get like a longblock assembly. if ur trying to build a race motor its alot easier to buy the parts all individually like bottom end, head, trans, all that seperately so u can modify the internals without taking apart the whole motor. my motor/head combo was bought through private sales of different parts since i built the motor as i went along. if u want jsut a motor go to tiger japanese or sumthing but if u wana build a race mototr go thru these forums and pick out parts u need and put it together like a puzzle. and a motor should never blow up. u should always inspect thigns like seals gaskets, see if the oil is burnt, little thigns u can inspect to give u a glimpse into the functioning of the motor.
