Where to buy a engine

Does anyone know where i can get a vq30det engine to buy. Or would it just be better to buy engine components for my vq30de engine.

What's wrong with your current motor.

LKQ has always been good to me and my friends. You get what you pay for sometimes.

So do you guys buy these motors as is, out of wrecks or can you get a rebuilt one? Are they warranted? I may need an new engine shortly so I'm checking out my options. Also, when you buy a motor it's usually just the motor right, meaning no injectors, coils, or that kinda stuff right? Thanks.

LKQ is a network of salvage yards. They include a 3 month warranty on their motors. Have bought 2; b18c1 changer (Acrua gsr motor) and a lt1 (firebird) changeover. Had no probs. Reputible company.

The place I know gives a 1 year warranty on parts and whoever installs gives warranty on labor. They are in perfect condition for various mileages.
