JonnyBGood: I am dont recall what the price my tech said it would be but I do recall it being cheaper then buying a new engine.

PorscheBoy: Well it sounds like you got a good deal that probably was too good to pass up. So if I had been in the same situation I might have done the same thing.

Most people dont have a hookup to get a good price on an upgraded engine, thats probably why I like the idea of just making the one you got better.

Although if someone dropped a 3.2 engine in my lap I would definatly retrofit with 5 speed versus the 6(waste of time IMO) speed and upgrade from there....
