going rate for a street mechanic to swap engines... is roughly 400-500 dollars... shop rate depends, on how much hourly they charge.. i hope that helps..

Hm.. if you have friend's.. then it's alot easier. I think my friend charged another friend about $200-$300.. but yeah, considering if you don't know anyone, it's more costly.. and you'll need an engine..

Doing it yourself would be possible if you're not a car newbie. I agree, there are alot of sources online that will tell you what to do every step of the way. Just take your time and do it right.

Yeah seriously do it yourself. Since you are in la find someone who has done a dohc swap or sr swap and it wont take you much time at all.
