hey guys, im looking to swap in another 5's before this summer and swap over all my goodies. I've called a few junkyards around here and can't seem to find a decently priced one that's low millage. I found this one, and they want 1350 shipped, which im sure i can get lower. But if anyone has a lower millage one, or a newer one they are looking to get rid of, let me know. Or if anyone knows where i can find a better one. All help and input appreciated!

But my car's off the road right now with no plates on it. I would love to not have to replace the engine, but this summer im going to be driving around 60 miles to work everyday, so i want to make sure everything is solid, even if it means spending some extra money. -------------------- |
