Default Worth trading s2k blown motor?

There is a guy on a local forum trying to trade his 2002, 34k mi, silver S2000 with unpainted factory lip.

He over-revved it and blew the head. I was thinking about trying to trade him for my EK and get either a J's racing crate F20C (280hp), or order a used JDM F20C (250hp 11.5:1cr) and swap out the blown motor and part off what is left of it.

Opinions? Is it worth it? What are garages charging labor wise for that kind of work?

Straight trade? Can you be without a car for a while, in the process of putting in the new engine? Or do you have a DD already? I'd say do it if you can, you deff wouldn't be disappointed.
