I'm Stranded in Quebec. Need e30 engine

I'm unable to post in general discussion and I need some help. I was driving through Canada and my engine disintegrated (long story).
I'd like any info on getting a quality (hopefully warranted) M20 engine shipped to Riviere due Loup, which is just north of Quebec City. I've tried LKQ but they don't have anything in stock.

I need to drive back to California and would appreciate any help.

Thanks!
Aaron

LS swap time?
There's a engine on craigslist in Sanford ME, but that's about 6 hours away.
Otherwise you could try searching Kijiji: Free Classifieds in Canada. Find a job, buy a car, find a house or apartment, furniture, appliances and more!

Sorry I can't be more help.

Maybe this FB Group can help you out? On the new england one, people are always parting cars out.

Thanks a ton! I didn't see anything on kijiji, but the engine in Sanford might work.

It might be helpful to clarify what engine you need, M10, M20 or M42...?
