Default engine swap shopping

ok i have a 95 dx coupe. ive been to hmotors online and checked out the prices and went to next level racing and they gave me a price range for a whole b16a swap if they did it. so im just shopping around and looking for feedback bc i plan on doing the swap soon.

im looking for places who would actually do the whole thing (get the engine, everything needed, and put it in for me) so if anyone knows anything, or how much and where.. possibly even numbers to contact the people i would appreciate it...

PLEASE HELP!

thank you,
-billy

You can do it yourself. There is a ton of information on every Honda swap imaginable on the internet. Good thing about putting a b-series into your chasis is you can pretty much re-use everything. Also, if you put it in and have a problem, you can call a local shop, and if it's an easy fix they can tell you how to fix it over the phone, or if they can't diagnose over the phone you can just bring it in and have them fix it. It'll be cheaper that way.
