Default need help with engine

hello. i just registered on this site to help my dad's friend, and i'm hoping someone can help me. he drives a 98 s70 turbo, but the timing belt snapped and caused all sorts of damage to his car. he wants to locate and buy a used engine and swap it in. can anyone please tell me if there is a vendor or some place to get this engine at a fair price? so far my searching hasnt found anything. can someone point me in the proper direction?

thanks for the help

Have you tried a local junk yard?

Also there is a link in the UPDATED LINKS thread about replacement engines.

VMS does factory replacement engines as well, try them out and call them.
