Icon4 Need help with d16y8 replacement

I just bought a turbo 1999 civic ex and turns out it needs a new engine. I took my car to the mechanic and I was told that its 1400 for a engine and 1000 to install. Is this a fair price? If not where can I get a low mile usdm d16y8 for less?

You could buy 2 Civics for that price around here. Not sure what state you're in but you could get a JDM equivalent Like the D16A

ZC/D16A SOHC VTEC Engine only 96-00 - Honda & Acura

The engine is basically identical so yes.
