Need Engine QUICK Tampa Fl d16z6
Well...the supposedly 3 month old engine that was in the Hatch i just bought a couple weeks ago blew tonight on the way home. 
No excessive driving, just a loud mechanical tick for several seconds then one solid bang and a long trail of oil.
Im assuming it threw a rod, more than likely through the block or pan. Either way is a moot point now. This car is a daily driver, so i need something quick.
I would prefer the stock D16Z6...but at this point anything I can drop in the bay will work. So anyone local with a spare motor, that runs, laying around...name your price.
Local would be Bay Area: Tampa, St pete, up to about an hour and a half north of st pete.
Also any ideas on local salvage yards with a good supply of salvaged import motors. Good shops to work with. Im kind of in a tight money bind.

Re: Need Engine QUICK Tampa Fl d16z6 (94SiHatch)
That sucks. I have a 93 d16z6 I pulled from my car when I did my swap. I will let it go for cheap. Needs a new head. I know that I am a noob here- used to post every now and then I think I got purged. I post on clubsi.com a lot. If you ask around you will know I am not some scamer. Anyway if you are interested let me know and I will give you pics and all that. Hope this is of some help to you.
