okay i know these two words probably dont belong in the same sentence but i was wondering what is the cheapest way to get a reliable ca18det swap? what im tryin to say is how much would a basic reliable swap cost not really looking at anything spectacular right now. just a swap, fmic, and exhaust. also does anyone know of any reputable shops in the midwest(preferably chicagoland area) for a swap. thanks guys

Getting good condition CA's is becoming very hard. If you're wanting peace of mind and garuntee'd reliability, plan on a rebuild with stock parts.

As far as price, I would plan on $3K.
