Best Place to get Engine Swap done?

Hi,
anyone give me their opinion on where to get an engine swap done? More important who can do it right and not severely overcharge? I'm looking at a few shops, Defcon, Splitfire, ETD, Altech. If anyone can post their experiences that would be appreciated. Thanks.

based on the reviews i have read, i would definitely recommend Defcon/Optionjdm. check the buyer/seller feedback section for more information.

next level is pretty good. when i worked there most of the cars that came in for b swaps was either done by the end of the day or the next day depending on what time you bring it to them. they've done all sorts of swaps (k20s, h22s, b series, etc.) so the honda scene isn't new to them at all.

Nicotine .... I agree but, ONLY when PAULY works on it ,
his "tuners" just dont have his touch.


splitfire / defcon / option JDM <---yet too see there work, but they import motors, im sure you atleast get a guarantee

not sure why optionJDM and defcon are being called the same shop. In fact Defcon and A.R.T motorsport are the same shop. Either way, thay rock - less than 1hr to install my coilovers.
