Default How much for engine swap?

wats up everyone, i got about 3 grand saved up for either work rims or an engine swap. i just sold my rims so im leanin towards new rims, especially cuz my stock ones are slightly bent but nothing big. but i really want a new fast engine i can have fun with. if i were to get the new engine, does anyone know where i could get reliable engines from where i wont get ripped off? with transmission and everything. and i doubt 3 grand would be enough to buy it and get it installed, so how much you guys think it will cost to buy the engine and transmission and get it all installed? An estimated price guess will do.

thanks!

It really depends on where you go, I assume your talking about a 2jzgte swap, I think its around 5 grand if you go to a shop but I'm not sure.
