Looking to spend around 1200 or less... I've found a complete almost no miles engine is less than doing a headswap on my car.I have rebuilt the trans, done many suspension repairs, put new tires and fresh rims on it, and the only weak link left is the engine which burns oil massively.I know I have to add one hole to mount an ECT sensor, but other than that I believe the engines are essentially identical (in terms of installation)I can't get the engine now as I'm ready to buy my beater, but I'll be getting the engine next summer. I had to laugh when I looked at ebay and saw a police interceptor engine with 9000 miles on it out of a WRECKED cop car... that would be ironic to drop that in my carany input, please let me know, you guys are very helpful on this forum!George</blockquote>
