I have some questions bout engine swappin so here it is. If you are going to answer, can you plz copy the question or quote it and then answer. thanks.

1. How much does labor for engine swappin cost? ::Gimme A Range From Lowest to Highest::

2. Are the JDM motors built for the right side, if so how can i get them installed into the left side?

3. How long will the car be in the shop for an engine swap?

4. Will a swapped GSR in a 99 civic out perform the stocked gsr on a teggy?

5. Does it matter if the car is an auto b4 the swap to a 5-speed?

6. Will i have to get new gauges for the car?

7. When swappin, everything goes rite? so.. i could buy a $3k car with 150k miles and swap with a 30k mile engine and it will run fine.
