Can't find an engine

[bioevolve]

I can't find a good priced engine!
I can't decide on the stock K20A3 160hp(which I'm still thinking about it Pradamuimui $2750 shipped)
I can't decide on the K20A2 200hp(only best price I found is on ebay $2500 so far on the bidding +$250 shipping)
I can't decide on the K20A JDM 220hp(freekin expensive $6000 shipped)
Help me decide, my check engine light stays on and motor is jerking like a heavily modified V8 hehehe, well I only wanna spend $3500 or less so the K20A is out of the question and I can reuse most of my current mods.
Wonder if the Acura CL Type-S motor will fit hahaha;) :p

What is the actual problem with your engine. If the problem is in the head you should be able to get a new A2 head for about $2000. That would be a good upgrade too........

[!@#$%]

It blew up, peices of spark plugs are rolling around in the combustion chamber.
Pulled the plugs, ends are broke and missing, centers are missing pieces, I will rebuild this motor, but need a motor for the time being :D ;)

My motor is still up for grabs:D
