Rebuild or new motor?
I have a '94 Integra LS with 140K miles on it. I want a motor with LOW miles (30-40K), so I'll probably end up buyin one from an importer (LS motor, because I wanna turbo it). Someone told me to rebuild it though, and that got me thinking. If I rebuild it, I can do a custom motor, with a bored and sleeved block, new tranny, etc. It costs more, but then again I'd be doing that kind of stuff in the long run anyway. So, I was wondering what you all think. Rebuild, or just a new LS?

$2200? That's PLUS shipping, right? Im lookin at one at totaljdm.com for $849+ $196.57 for shipping to a place near me. For your shipping, how well did that go? Where did you have to pick that up?
