Default New enginge ... broken crank shaft

I have a 92 prelude.. that has 115k on it... it died a very painful death .. i was told the crankshaft broke, which no one can quite believe.. i was diligent in my oil changes and though i drive fast I don't drive THAT fast... anyway, we are looking at dropping in a new engine and I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the Chilton's manual... and any recommendations on places for a used engine.. i've talked to a couple that will ship me one but since i have just found the board i figured I would ask.. thanks in advance for any input..

I seconed that... I got mine in the mail yesterday.

first 10pages are how to pull out an engine. It is a little expensive but well worth it if you plan on doing much work on your car
