It got hot enough that the engine stopped running. It does start now but there could be several things screwed in it. I was wondering how much a good running 22re would be from a junkyard. also how much $ and what is involved doing a 3.0 or a 3.4 swap? I could do the work myself. Also what are the chances of the engine being any good? or should I not even mess with anything with that many miles on it because I will need it to be fairly reliable. the tires are good on the truck and he only wants $500 for it. sorry for the million questions but I want to do some research first. Thanks a lot fellas and any input is appreciated.

as far as the price goes i dunno i aleays talk people down. and for an engine ive seen the 22 r / re long block fairly cheap at yards but if i was you spend the extra and get a new one a new one is about 1000 bux well worth it. look at
