New FL5 engines and transmissions

[UCF120]

Has anyone being able to purchase new engines and/or transmissions from Honda for the Type R, FL5 or FK8?

Anyone that’s blown a motor or a transmission what is the typical route for replacement?

Was just looking into it in case I would ever need to buy a new engine or transmission for my car and noticed no where are they listed for sale by Honda.

if you have purchased one brand new, what kind of cost are we looking at for a full long block?

I can’t answer your specific question but, I recently saw that Spoon USA offered a complete engine. Might be higher priced than a stock engine but, an option at least.

Honda will sell you a K20C crate engine for around $9K, the Spoon crate engine is $15k

They couldn't throw in their yellow valve cover at that price?

I thought Honda only sold K20C crate engines to professional race teams? Maybe they make a specific crate engine for this and a different one for Type R replacements?

that’s what I thought also and why I made this thread. May be something you have to actually go to the dealer for though to get a new one if you blow the original motor for the vehicle. I can find used ones but I’m specifically looking for how to get a brand new one and if anyone has actually done it through Honda.
