Default Ls engine swap

Is this a good deal 92 LS swap for $400 comes with ecu, aftermarket headers, and axles. I still need motor mounts, tranny, engine harness and shift linkage. Is this a good deal for a 92 LS with 100k? Compression is still good 180 all across they guy also recently did a valve adjustment. Forgot what he said. It still runs strong.

Well, it's OBD-1 so you don't have to worry about the sensors or plugs, if it's going into a OBD-1 car. But you didn't mention what kind of car or what year it is that it's going into. If it's a 92+ Civic, you can use the cable tranny with a hydro-cable conversion kit (like the HCP EG-18C or EK-18C if an EK chassis), and use the ECU and everything else for it. But you will have to switch the mounts & brakets, and the shift linkage if going into a newer Civic or Integra.

I'd try to find a hydro B series tranny. I'd particularly look for newer models with lower mileage, because tranny rebuilds are expensive even if you do all your own labor.
