i know u dont want a junkyard..but where do u think shops get their motors?

YLM in duarte supplies a bunch of local shops.

its on a secluded street with a bunch of other junkyards. since u live in glendale, take the 210 east and exit buena vista. when u exit, head south (away from mountains) then make a right on alpha St. u should be able to get good deals around there. shouldnt take u more than 15 min to get there..

my cousin picked up a couple of b20 long blocks for 750 each...

My friend got a good motor from them for his MR2 for a good price, and they delivered it.

Try this:
K. Watanabe Corporation 12055 Sherman Wy North Hollywood, CA 91605 818 765 5859

K. Watanabe Corporation 11550 Wright Rd Lynwood, CA 90262 310 763 6420

K. Watanabe Corporation 12055 Sherman Wy North Hollywood, CA 91605 818 765 5859

K. Watanabe Corporation 11550 Wright Rd Lynwood, CA 90262 310 763 6420
