Looking for a FS-DE to drop in

I blew the engine last summer with 245k on it and I'm now going to put in a new engine. Bought a 2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T last December and had it for all of 3 months before some non-driver pulled out and ditched me.

So I'm now going to get the old P5 going again, never done a engine swap but I'm very mechanically inclined and do all my own work on all our vehicles.

Looking for a under 120k engine to throw in, 5 speed is still holding up well so trans doesn't matter.

I live in Southern Illinois, too far from Florida or Canada unless I take a road trip but I'm hoping someone has one around. I'm not wanting to spend a ton since the body has near 250k on it, not in bad shape just getting some fender rust.

Thanks.
 
There are a lot of places online that sell motors, junkyards and JDM engine dealers. You could get an FSZE with under 100k for around $7-800 from some of them
