well i spoke to a mechanic who rebuilds engines. He said he would rebuild my engine and put it back in my car for 2600 which i think is steep. I think i could buy a GT for 4k, and then make about 1400 off parts, and i would have a GT instead! Anyways, the real reason for this post is that if i do go ahead and get this guy to rebuild/fix my engine, are there any 'extra' things i should ask him to do? (he would probably charge extra) but i think if it would help it out, then im game.

Thanks for any advice,
Josh.

Find a lower mileage motor and have that puppy shipped to your mechanic. Don't tell him how much you spent until it's all over. Shouldn't cost more than $600 to swap motors (as presure2 said).
