Really? nothing? I know I'm not an overactive poster, but when I feel I have something to contribute I do. The best leads I got on parts and such came from here, that's why I asked?

I opened your original posting yesterday and admittedly replied with nothing.
Personally, I have never bought a used engine but if I did, I might start with CL to find a wrecked car where I could hear the engine first. I also may use www.car-parts.com.
Then, I noticed that you are in the Canuck-land and some of my suggestions may not be that relevant to your quest (maybe Kijiji.)
Speaking of quest, I also found your question to be very broad. More typical would be, "who is a good importer of JDM engines?" Or, "Miata needs a new shortblock; good sources?"
Engines in general is very...general.

Congrats on your new laptop.
Condolences if it was not an intended purchase.

I have bought items from this site for myself and customers. Nice units at fair prices.

Everything I have in my 'Engine' bookmarks folder. No guarantee they are all current or work. There may be duplicates. As far as used I just use car-part.com and craigslist as was already posted.

do you still have the old computer?

if so, backup your favorites onto a thumb drive and transfer them over..

Thank you folks that was exactly what I needed! sorry to come off as a bit of a douche! Just frustrated. the new purchase was unintended, my 16 month old decided to give the old laptop a drink!

You'll need to log in to post.
