You can try NAD Auto 770-416-1665. A lot of shops around Atlanta get the engines and transmissions from them. They get the engines from Japan with very low miles(15-20K) and they know which engine can use in U.S. They have couple guys stay in Japan to buy the engines and send them to U.S.
The engine for the 96ES may cost you around $2600.00 .
