Any suggestions for finding D15B7 (in New England)?

[Riick]

Hoping someong might have some ideas for finding a D15B7 engine. They seem to be hard to come by around here (I'm in Massachusetts). Scanned craigslist a few weeks with little success. Called a handful of junkyards but found nothing. Ebay might work but with mileage under 200k they cost more than a whole car.

Probably. To get there and back would be 600 miles (11 hours drive time).
But any information about your experience would be helpful-- like what kind of place were they (engine rebuilder? junkyard? swap shop?) Did you pick it up direct from them or have it shipped? Did they test it for you? How much did it cost?
Just want to get an idea to expect since I've never bought an engine before.

Might have found one. Trick was to manually search the nearby craigslist cities one by one. (I had been assuming that when cl shows listings "found nearby" it's doing this automatcially, but I apparently it's not.)

Y do you want d15b7? Have you tried lkq in Webster or Leominster? I worked at the one in Webster n I would see a bunch of y7's y8's n b series come threw the yard.
