Default honda owners... got a quick question

im new to the whole honda thing, and i just wanted to see if this new motor is worth me buying. im getting a d16z6 motor with a ported and polished head and a gude cam. its a 92-95 civic Si motor and comes with everything for the swap except the tranny i believe for $700. is it a good deal?

for everything but the tranny, i'd say 700 is a decent deal....

Not a steal by any means but defiantly not bad either.

what has the world come to, people paying for "built" single cam motors? i'd rather have an LS motor over a single cam motor and i am not a fan of LS motors. D series motors have toothpicks for rods. spend a little more and get a B series motor.
