Default Where to find b18a's?

Yo, a friend of mine got a EF civic hatch. A b18 swap is being considered, im trying to find prices but i cant find this motor anywhere.! seems like they only sell 94 and hydro motors from Japan. I want a cable tranny OBD 0 (prior to 92) b18. If they have that JDM even better. Anyone klnow a website or shop?

Try local junkyards, http://www.thepartstrader.com , and even http://www.recycler.com (which is especially for Cali residents)...

Good luck

Why not go with a newer B18B but use the OBD0 components and a cable tranny? I have a 91 CRX DX with a 96 B18B1 and 92 GSR YS1 cable tranny using OBD0 components. If you're looking for a complete swap, then a 90-91 B18A1 is what you want. If you don't mind piecing together the swap, go with a newer lower mileage B18B o2 B20B/Z.
The motors/swaps shouldn't be that hard to come across. Just check with any junkyards across the US or the parts trader or the recycler as mentioned.
