Either rebuild it, or grab a longblock from the junkyard for like $200.

3sgte isn't really financially feasible unless you're looking for over 300whp.
my thoughts exactly.

I honestly dont think i have the time to rebuilding the engine, so im going to look into it. I actually found one with low miles on ebay, free shipping, comes with tranny etc etc, $449. Not bad.


And i do want to eventually put a 3S-GTE in there, because it is my project car, but not for awhile, maybe a year or so? Right now, just focusing on getting it running, after that, performance will come into play.

Thanks for the help Con
