Near $1100 with shipping, but that's a big guesstimate which is very close.

Alternator, ps pump, turbocharger, turbo manifold, possibly AC compressor, etc, etc. I can't see the other engines in my friend's warehouse, but he assured they are there.

Not more than 8 business days. I don't control shipping, but I do assure you that you will have a good engine that won't go poof on you for no reason. And because I inspect them, they are warranted for 30 days as well.

I am 90% sure I blew my KA today...overheated, then died. It is at a shop for confirmation.

so I was thinking about getting a CA18DET for a swap.

How much for everything I need to stick it in an 89, shipped to the Detroit area? Not sure where I will do the work yet, but the zip will be within 40 miles of 48239

I will need one in very good condition, and I may need a front clip to replace other damaged parts.

Sorry your KA is doing what they are known to do and that's blow-up, but I will try and help you as best as I can. As soon as my friend calls me with the shipping info, I'll let you know the total via email.

Rb20/25DET, VG30DETT or SR20DET which are you interested in? There are vendors on this forum that actually sell these motors as well, but the CA is not a popular one, so my friend brings them in only at my request. And to those those that wonder why I go a little bit beyond to make sure a motorset is good, it's because I would hate to see you guys get a crappy motor after spending your hard earned money and then have no type of warranty to help you out when it does go. At least I'd be willing to help you with some parts or give the best advice from my own experiences.

This is my pledge:

I am a true CA enthusiast. If I can power all my cars with a CA18DET, thou will be done. I will not turn my back on the CA when the going gets rough. However, I will do my best to get a downed CA up and going again. I will try and do my best to help my CA brethren achieve their goals by either sharing gained knowledge, pointing them in the right directions, and/or providing them with parts/accessories that they can rely on. I will do my best to do some things with the CA that will make others proud to say they own a CA18DET. I'm not any better than any of you, I've only took the plunge into learning about the CA series motors alot sooner than most (4/11/1991 on Okinawa, Japan). And lastly, I'm not a salesman. I don't import CA engines. I just make sure that you guys get the good stuff that comes from around here in south florida no matter what the engine has on it or in it.
