Your best bet is someplace like criagslist. I cant even list how many ka motors ive see on there that people throw away from an sr swap. That, or the junkyard.

If you want to build a nasty KA, why not get a junkyard one. If its gona be nasty im assuming its a complete build. Why pay all the money to buy a rebuilt one and tare it apart, when you can get a cheap crappy one?

Yea, if you want a "Nasty" KAT then your going to have to rebuild it to forge the internals. So the condition shouldn't matter to much. Buying a fully build motor in my mind is kinda a waste of money. I buy things for my car so I can enjoy working on them, but that is personal preference. Go troll the KAT section, I learned so much in there. It has basically everything you would need to know.
