Good Place to Buy a BP??

Where are some good places to buy a used BP?? Any places you have bought from or places with a good rep.

NOTE: Just the normal DOHC BP, not the GTX or R



Thanks

Check local junkyards. If you keep checking you'll most likely run across a low mileage BP for a fairly decent price.

i found my bp engine on car-part. dont forget you can look under escort gt, mercury tracer, and kia sephia.

or just call a junk yard, many are affiliated with each-other and can get just about any-thing.

116348 is the mileage.


Price, eh......hmmm.... 700 for the engine, 40 for the ecu, and 50 for the harness.

I may be willing to come down in price....

Ouch.

Some time ago I was trying to see interest in dohc engine, with tranny, axles, harness, ecu (everything for a dohc to sohc swap) for $700 US and no one was interested.

deadly , you usually include the ecu and harness , as the motor is pretty useless with out it and they are hard (VERY) to sell by themselves
