OE engine swap

[Conan]

Hello all I'm new here so this might already be a thread. I have a 2009 that needs a new engine. I plan to swap it myself but would like to have a TM and I'm not having any luck finding one at the shops or library around here. Iv looked online but that is just a mess so that's why I joined. I figure who better to ask than you guys. So any help would be great. It's an automatic transmission. I have a lose budget around $1200 I also would love any advice. I was given the car so i really want to get it running and use it to commute to work. Thanks in advance...

I found a couple on ebay. Not cheap nor your exact version:

I would try and get used engine and close as your year and model. Then start removing "stuff" in the way until you can lift the engine. Use a camera and take lots of before and after pictures. I usually buy the glad freezer bags with the white on them so you can write down the subsections. Throw all those subsection nuts/bolts in those baggies.

There are plenty of guys here who have done this. I am not sure if they had a manual or not.
