There is always some engines for sale, search the marketplace here and on beyond. I know a guy by the name of "Hjr" is selling a DOHC engine. You'll need the engine, tranny, and wiring harness. I would expect to spend over $1000 at least. If you want a running engine I have a SOHC motor that I will sell for $300 and it will be a straight drop in swap that you could do yourself.

If your actually planning on going SR then dont spend an extra cent on swaping to a DOHC, trust me you will regret it in the future.

but i was just reading on beyond that theres a place in cowtown that sell em for 2400 and its 1100 to installl...

Search through the old posts on this forum. There is lots of info about SRs. I dont think any one of us wants to go through that all again.
