Default Motor swaps

Where is a few good places to get an engine swap done? I'm looking into a SR20 for my 240 and was wondering what places were good. Around what prices are considered good too? I checked CCC today and they do it for 5500 (engine supplied + Labor). its a start but i'ma shop around first.

If you do it yourself you'll save money and you will learn something about your car and you'll take more pride in it because it was your sweat and blood that got it done. If not take it to millenium they have done a shitload of clean SR swaps and a RB
