Swapping your engine is an up and coming trend in the motor world. Its sometimes cheaper to buy a shell (a car the has no engine or transmission) and buy the engine that you want for your vehicle. In New York, there are many different places you can buy engines. There are 2 in particular that I recommend personally, JDM Engine Depot located on Liberty Avenue and Sutphin Blvd in Queens and the other is in Kearney NJ.
When looking for engines it is very important to look for something that is not only compatible with your vehicle but is something that will last in the long run. Engines are very hard to shop for; there are several things that you must take into consideration. One that is the most important is the mileage on the engine. The more mileage on the car means the previous owner has beaten the engine and the wear and tear on the engine will be significant.
When shopping for engines always gets something based on what you intend on doing with the vehicle. If it is a daily car you want something that will last and be street legal. If you’re building a track car then the more power the better. Most people go for K-Series engines. They have more power and is street legal. Hybrid-Racing.com is the perfect website to help you with you K-Series swap.. They are one of the best engines to get but they are pricey.
On Google there are many different websites that can help with you with your shopping needs.
