J Spec Engine

My 150,000 miles plus FC Turbo engines are leaking really bad, and thinking about getting used engine.
I'm thinking about used J spec engine or rebuilt engine.
Any recommendations?
Any good place to get used J spec or rebuilt engine in Southeast?

Jspec engines are not recommended unless you merely need something for temporary use until you get it rebuilt, Jspecs are usually used for core engines due to their low mileage but the seals are compromised from sitting for so long without use.

Thank you guys.
Does J Spec Engine needs special bracket/mount etc, or it is a simple swap?
Let me know.

Also, pleae search for "j-spec", "j-spec recommendations" and variations, because all this has been answered before.

J-spec engines are junkyard engines, so it's not so much important where it comes from, as it is that they give you a good warrenty.

Yes, it is basically a direct bolt in. They are almost exactly the same as the North American engines.
