I feel your pain, (see my avatar).

I can help you find a motor, I deal with rebuilders, junk yards and dealerships all the time. I export cars to China part time. I can also do the install for you unless you want to pay 80-90 an hour for labor at a shop.

How much are you planning on spending, F20's are not cheap and harder to find than most motors.

what happened to your motor? patrick.

I can get you a complete longblock for about $3000-$3300

longblock means, short block and cylinder head?

chairmnofthboard

means valve cover to oil pan. doesn't include intake, exhaust mani, alt, etc.

would you guys by chace have any connections to finding a short block in Socal?

working shortblock or shortblock for rebuild?

it's going to be hard to find a working shortblock. nobody takes the heads off a working shortblock.
