Do anyone know how swapping and Engine will effect insurance rates? NY's insurance prem. are already high enough. So wondering how much more it would cost if I swapped my engine.

it will affect your insurance if you tell them about it. it will cost more, but varying depending on your age. if you don't tell them, you don't have to pay higher rates, but if you get in an accident it's likely your entire policy will be void and you'll have no coverage for even basic repairs.

as for legality, JDM engines really aren't legal, but will past most smog tests. they will NOT however, pass any visual smog inspection because there is no EGR system on the engine, and that's very easy to see when you are inspecting the car... the parts just aren't there.
