Default Is this a good deal and should i do it?

My buddy that works at a shop is saying that for 2350 he will drop in a complete b16 with axles shift linkage mounts the whole 9 yards and chip it with hondata and lsd tranny. Is this a good deal or look else where. This also includes installation.

Thats the same thing this guy at the mall told me. He said as long as you get a run down of the motor you will be ok.

yup, have a compression and leakdown test done to it before you make any agreements...

also do all the maintance since its out, like timing belt, waterpump, main seals, cam seals, etc...

if its your buddy that works at the shop he should be able to get you getter then 2300,

2000 up here you can get a b16 fully installed, not a lsd tranny or "hondata chipped"

or everything you need out the door for 1500
