Thanks! I have already been on your sight 100x reading up on the IMS issue and replacement thread (before I flew to florida to see the car in person I was told it was an bad IMS bearing)....it does not sound like that to me, but what do I know?
If an engine replacement is required I will probably have to source a stock 3.2 to swap in as these engines are FAR from inexpensive.
I don't want to "cheap" out on the project/build...but I am trying to keep this on a reasonable budget.
