Default Where can I go to find a B18A complete swap?

I want to put a B18A swap into my 89 Civic LX, but I don't want to spend a lot of money. Where can I find one?

Haven't done that yet. I've been waiting for Hybrid Garage (where I bought the mounts) to send me replacement bushing's since Oct. 24..... But I guess I'll have to go to the source shortly.

Man, you should visit Florida. I've seen plenty of fast *** POS Honda's. There's a Blue Rex with a crushed rear quarter and weathered paint riding around with a boosted b16. There's a 92-95 Civic hatch that all the 8's want piece of, And that car doesn't have a straight body panel on it. The hood looks like it's been popped up more than once while hallin some ***, both edges of the hood by the ends of the windshield are bent all the hell up. Yet, everyone who's seen it run the 8's and v-10's droll's over that POS. But then again, you say don't mod the beater...................

My Place mounts line the motor a little forward in the engine bay, and they are stout as hell though. I reccommend them.
