engine swaps

I am new to this forum but have been doing searches in order to gain some knowlegde. BUt i have not really found much. I know i might get **** for wanting to swap another motor but o well.
how much does it cost to get a full swap with a 2jzTurbo, rb26dett, or sr20det?
i know this will decrease handling but wouldnt the sr20det be the best, cuz its lighter than the other 2 and smaller ( more work space)
any info and/or feedback is appreaciated thanks

2jz is heavy and a bit too big for me to want to play with
rb's i just despise nissan engines after workin on a S14

sr would be a good choice (despite my nissan hatred) or just do something crazy that i don't think has been done before like a turbo miata swap or somethin cool

the motors woln't decrease the handeling any really (well, the 2jz would because its a tank motor as far as weight is concerned)... but even a LS1 V8 will not adversely affect the handeling to where you can't easily correct it to a nice balance
