where to buy an engine?

I'm Helping build an MK indy and the deal with the engine we were going to use has fallen through. Any ideas as to where to buy a suitable engine? We preferably want a ready to fit engine, ie with all the carbs/throttles, management bits, bellhousing, gearbox etc.
We had budgeted for about £3000.
Do you know anyone selling something suitable?
Any recommendations for complete kit car engine suppliers?
We want to sort something out pretty quickly as its going to hold the build up soon.
Thanks Woz

The pinto sounds Ideal. but sounds like it may be sold I'll try to contact the seller to check.
The other one is a bike engine and the guy who's funding the car wants a car engine.
Thanks for the info.
any more ideas?
