is this just a replacement engine or a upgrade engine?
try GoldWrench Automotives in North Vancouver. My shop of choice. Works on all vehicle makes, and i've seen them so plenty of engines (including civics).
very good prices too.
Best of luck.

you can get a good B18 engine for pretty cheap if you shop around. There are a number of guys around forums who could probably do motor/install for 1500-2000, just have to ask around.
If you're set on going to a reputable shop, you could probably get it done for 3k give or take. Some of the most common shops that do swaps are evo garage, garage 5, etc
