with 2-3k you gonna get a ls swap or something. and by looking at your other posts you are probably gonna pay someone to do the labor.

2-3K for an LS swap? Man, that's a ******* rip-off. I paid $1100 for mine with 45,000 miles for a 1999 B18B1. With $3000, you can get a B18C1.

woah, defensive much? lol. ease up. He wont get ripped cause he came on here and asked about it. At least, he wont if he listens.

And SEARCH, there is tons of info on this. In fact, dont even search, just look at the top of this forum, there is a sticky about it. It will answer alot of your questions.

So instead of help him, you just decided to tell him it'd cost him 2-3K for an LS swap?
