CA Any places to buy a used motor?

just bought a 91' n/a with busted apex seals.

Any places/online sites in the U.S. preferably california that sells used motors? (found a few canadian spots but shipping is a lot)

The place i usually go to only carries s4 motors at the moment.

Thanks in advance.

haha Liar... Try ebay, craigslist and there was this other site that restores engines and gives you a warranty on them. If I can find it, I will post it up for you.

hell I have an s5 motor and tranny for $500 if you want one. Ran like a champ and pulled it last week. Just check the for sale section and you will see these things from time to time.

Rebuild the motor you have... It'd be cheaper than buying a new motor!
