Never really seen one and if so how much? I would think it would be a decent amount less then a b16

$1000?? damn thats expensive try like $600 max for a complete b18a1 swap...then mounts $300 + axles $50 + shift linkage $50 +maybe ecu $100 and rewiring maybe another $50 for bits and pieces..

hell you are looking at $1000 for everything you need to put it in your car!

wait i apologize for that i misunderstood "complete" you are talking about EVERYTHING you need for the swap?

often shops sell "complete changeover" which includes all equipment needed for that particular engine...but you still need aftermarket mounts, etc etc.
