Where would I go about getting a evo 8 motor for my evo swap. I was about to order from DSM graveyard then I read up on them and they are dishonest thieves. Sw motors is the same as is tae used auto parts. Any one that has done the evo swap could you please tell me were you got your motor. I am not about to waste 3-4 grand and my project is being held up by this. I also called every junk yard\pick and pull within 5 hours of me, and no one has evo parts.

I am looking for the whole motor with turbo, exhaust manifold, alternator, water pump, etc. I am also trying to find a place to get an evo 8 ecu as well as the engine bay harness. Since tae used autoparts sounds like a scam.j

Be sure to ask their terms too. Some yards around here require specific parts to be new (stuff you should change anyways like water pump, belts, etc.,) and require the install be done by a shop for that 30 day warranty to count. Some also cover parts+labor while others only cover parts.

I get all the stuff with motor warranties and such I just can't find a place I trust/reasonably priced to buy a motor from. Any one have any idea how much a stealership would charge? I would call but I am afraid of the possible stroke that may follow haha.
