Question How easy to find a 20b engine?

Hi all, just need some feedback as in the title. How easy is it to actually find a 20b engine? I am asking this as I ran into a half-cut cosmo with a good working 20b engine? Should I buy and keep the engine (if it is hard to find) until I am ready to make the change or should I just wait (if it is easy to find a 20b engine) until I am fully prepared to make the change? Because I was under the impression that there are limited 20b worldwide and I do plan to upgrade to a 20b eventually. Thanks in advance.

You see them for sale fairly often, I just saw one that was from a Eunos Cosmo:



http://www.atkinsrotary.com/

they want $6,500 for this.

I personally keep holding out for the Cosmo that was put into storage by the parents of the kid that never came back from the war....and all they want is someone to take the car off their hands.......

This place is in my hometown. Supposedly they have rebuilt 20B's, prices depending on the application. I dunno much about 20B's or RX-7's in general, but maybe that will help you out.
