You should be able to find a low mileage K20A2 with trans for about $3 to $5k. Labor depends on what's being done.

As SSVR6 said $3k-$5k for complete swap + freight
$600-$1k for labor
$400-$650 for HAS motor mounts
so far, I cant think of anything else. There is probably more check with 7thgencivic's site.

slick,
Your mom is cool!:cool: My wife thinks the idea of replacing the motor in our new Si is the most ridiculous thing she has ever heard of. I am going to be limited to bolt-ons and mods to the A3 for a while.:(

tell your mom that in another life, she and I are meant to be together;)

You'll love driving the S2K when she lets you. My father has one and the way that baby screams from 6-9,000rpm is awesome.
