    k24a2 from ebay?

    has anyone ever bought from ebay for a swap engine?
    saw that have a couple of k24a2 for 1400-1700 before shipping and around 100k miles but dont know how reliable they are to buy engines from?
    any input would be helpfull

    have you searched junkyards around you area? I got mine for $1600 delivered to my door with a warranty and 30k miles on it. I know a few people have gotten better prices than that

    Bought mine with 60K local for 1200..

    had a bad oil pump.. but still was cheaper than ebay .. and less miles.

    yes i'd search junkyards / carparts.com Or troll the WTS forums on k20a

    be patient and wait for the right one to come along.. it will.

    Best advice: Shop, Shop, Shop

    Keep looking. You will be surprised at what you can find and for what price. Ask a TON of questions.. Year, miles, warranty, compression test, VIN, and what happened to the vehicle it came out of.

    Look around at k20a.org for sales, and check google.com search, and car-part.com

    I looked around for a year and got a OEM rebuilt k24a2/k20z3 with k20a2 oil pump, TSX injectors and a clutch and flywheel combo for 2,500

    i bought my '06 k24a2 with 50k miles for 1800 back in 2010. it was in california and was shipped by train then on a truck. arrived to my friends shop in perfect condition and is running like a champ to this day. just research the sellers and call them before you buy. i cant stress research the sellers enough. hope this helps.
