yeah in california.. welcome to the problem on the east coast and many other places around the country.. most of us aren't that lucky to go to a local place period.. the closest place i could get a JDM motor for my car was Virginia..

but i was talking 5k with installation....

i dunno what availability is like in texas but get a hold of the NTPOG.. north texas prelude owners group and i'm sure some guys will be glad to come out for the install and locate all the parts you'll need... ntpog.org
