Default How much would a swap cost?

I'm currently searching around for all information for a RSX-S motor to be swapped in my 03 Si. I have found that motors are going for roughly 3-4k w/o shipping. What I can't really find information on is where would I find places to do the swap for me...

I don't have the knowledge nor the tools to do such a swap and would probably hire someone to do it. I have been quoted up to $1800 to do this swap, so I was wondering if you guys could give me some average numbers to expect.

It's such a new car and swap that not many people have done it so there probably isn't really a price range established yet. I don't see how you could take such a new car and swap the motor so soon, not when the motor in there has a lot of potential. But to each his own

My motor might be blown...that's why I'm gonna be swapping it. Its supposed to be a very straightforward swap, and that's why I thought it would only be logical for it to be similarly priced to the B-series swap into the 92-95 Civic.

Well, no, you're looking at mostly nearly completely new motors when you are looking for that motor.
