I took my car in for an alignment today and one of the mechanics told me something that I had already noticed but priced me at a rate I thought was ridiculous.

They said the following:

water pump is leaking
engine is drenched in oil t
replace oil valve cover seal and
head valve cover seal
Timing belt is worn

They estimated around $800 for parts and labor.

I wanted to know if anyone knew where i could find prices for the following and a how to guide for installing these parts because im not willing to shell out that much cash.

Also I was considering swaping out my combustion engine for an electrical engine and if there are any do it yourself guides for that or any compatible electric motors I could use that anyone knows of.

Thanks a bunch.

Your local toyota dealer will have everything you need.
As far as swapping out your motor for an electrical one is concerned, that is not possible
