Default Cost of H22 swap?

I found a 94 Accord 4-dr DX for $4,450 (as a used car lot - and yes, I'll have it inspected). It has a MT, and has 127,000 miles on it. I have upto $8,000 or so to spend.

ALSO! I found this one for $200 more... 96 LX Coupe... and this 94 coupe for $50 less... and, yes, a nice 96 sedan for $150 less...

First of 3 questions: what do you think I SHOULD pay for them?

Second of 3 questions: With $8,000 and paying the price as is, would I be able to do an engine swap? I would have it done at a shop. So I'm talking total price: engine, parts, labor.

And third of 3 questions: After that, would I have enough money left over to get, say, a new set of tires and rims (18")?

Thanks!

car 4500. engine shipped from japan at least 2000, probably closer to 3000. Install another 500. Even lowballing those figures you will have less than 1000 dollars left. No tires/rims for you.

Ya... http://www.jdmcustoms.com/h22a041.html

but isn't that the same as: http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30016

Is so, hmotors ,for that one, has the lower price. Though shipping... how much is shipping for an H22?
