Arrow CA18DET for $900?

Zerolift.com has a ca18det engine and tranny for 900 dollars, is this a decent deal? or does anyone else know where i can find a ca18det for a nice price?
i live and hour away from these people and could just pick it up myself which is why this is so convenient.

should bolt in the same as an SR. drop it in and wire it up. Dont think I am off on that, but you might want to get a second opinion just in case.
