Default Engine swap

Not really sure which engine to go with for a swap, want good power but don't want to go crazy money wise.Also haven't done one yet but am willing to learn, and would like to know a good website to get info on how to go about the swap.

K, I'll do the honors if no one else will: A swap into what? A Kia? A Yugo? A riding lawnmower? How much budget for it? What are your goals power wise? Is it for street? Track? Drag strip? Give us some more details to work with and many more people will offer advice and help you out.

200hp and you don't want to spend much money? Well, there are few swaps that will get you to those #'s in N/A form without building them. Be prepared to not only spend $ on the swap, but also boosting it too. Good power is not cheap!
