Default Any good motor swap shops around OC/Southern california?

Does anyone know any legit/honest shops that sell USDM TYPE R motors and will swap it for you? I have a DC4 integra right now and planning on swapping the ls to a USDM TYPE R motor with less miles. I know its going to cost alot but I have 3k ready and waiting to get my taxes.

They sell motors there? I've been there with my friend with an EVO and it seems like all they work on are Evos/Sti's

I started out in the STI scene (way back in the day) and you'd be surprised how much they have grown since...Granted the shop definitely does their fare share of those cars, but because of a high demand of Honda/Acura parts you'd be stupid not to jump on the money making bandwagon right?

All in all I know this much:
-I know they can source a legit motor.
-I know they can do the swap, and do it RIGHT.
-I know they swapped a type r into an EG or EK and got it LEGITIMATELY bar'd! (<------- a plus if you ask me!!!)
-They make me feel at home, not like a customer...but like a friend. That's big for me.

Steve/Brian have done all of my braking/suspension mods on my DC2 (some of which are just basic knowledge and some of which are completely custom) they will surely put my motor together as well. These guys are good, innovative, and professional. I've been to them w/all my imports and I've never left unhappy. I'm sure everyone else will chime in with their favorite shops, this is simply my experience with Project.
