http://www.hmotorsonline.com is a really nice company to buy from. Or you can go private party/local just take a look in the hondatech marketplace.

Cheaper way, you can get it rebuilt...

Then if your extra greedy, you can drop some upgraded internals...

You do know the RS and the LS have the same engine, the B18B1.

So which manuals are best for Hondas? Haynes? Helmes?

Also, I think an LS engine B18B1 would be a good engine to start with. They can be had for around $800 with very low milage.
