Default Why so Cheap???????????

why are these motors so cheap for what your getting? Has anyone done business with this company? Is there any missing details?

You need to read the fine print.

1- No tranny, linkage, axles
2- No ECU
3- No engine harness
4- SIR 1 Dist, manifold and sensors

If you want to use this with anything other than a OBD 0 car, you'll need to buy extra parts.

This one is cheap because you only get half of the block!

You can get the CRV longblock for $950 from http://www.jdmhondaparts.com, amoung other places. $1399 is insane.

its a 1st gen head
stock block (CRV)

just mounted together.
nothing else.

it is a good swap well worth it.
good for turbo

not everyone can afford a built b20 block
this is the answer.

save up later for new pistons and rods
