I am pretty sure the complete b16 swap over is 1,250 , you still will have to pay for shipping but it will still be cheaper then the other price the shop quoted you.

Why dont you just get it from NOYAN, they are located in manassas virginia. you would save alot if you just picked it up yourself. I got my engine there and its been running strong for 5000 miles so far. http://www.noyanusa.com

i got my swap from mid-atlantic engines in maryland. ive had it in the car for about 2500 miles and im happy so far. i paid 1750 shipped, and i thought that was high, but i guess if your buying it from a shop they are going to charge about twice the cost. i would definitely try to get one direct, and also put it in myself. with the right planning its really not too hard. bottom line, its worth it in the long run to research and get the best possible product, its a gamble.

Honda Motors Online AKA : HMotorsonline.com, steve is straight up.. you call he'll give you the same price as he gives the next. no one gets breaks there... and thats a true bussiness man.

i think i personaly have 3 HMotorsonline B16's out of my 4 engine inventory, not to mention my EF8 front end conversion, and many many, I/CTR goodies from Steve.. stright up. me and the boys try and make it down to his shop, atleast once a month, just to be hip on the JDM shippments.
