Tony,
I was racking my brain trying to think where
Calgary was in Western
Australia or USA - as soon as you said Canada the
penny dropped.
Yes ! Rupert Gardiner ( Asian Auto Parts) is in
Brisbane, Queensland,
Australia.-
Ph 61 7 32080133 - Fax 61 7 32080514;
Address:-198, Kingston Rd.,
SlacksCreek Q.4127
Our Local Price is $2,300 Aust - I believe your
exchange rate is
similar to
our own of 75 cents in the US Dollar.
A chap in the USA purchased a motor from Rupert
paid $550 for
Freight and
Paperwork, that represents approx $670 Aust,
weight is 100 kilos.
You would have to confirm actual prices with Rupert!
That's approx $3,000 Aust/ Canadian Dollars -
that's not bad, but
you should
check locally first to see what deal you can get
locally.

Currently there is an almost-new Renesis (manual)
engine and transmission on ebay (7979203422) with
the price sitting at $3K. It has 2,000 miles and is
being replaced with a bigger engine. Tracy advised
the automatic is an easier install than the manual
version (intakes, flex plate, etc.), but the manual
version will have more HP in the higher rpm range.
