... Hoping for the best but planning for the worst.... so... if it is an IMS failure I will replace the engine.... the car is a 1999 Base Standard.... what is the newest model year engine I can get for the car.... hopefully a year with the IMS issue some what lessened. Any Idea or recommendations on what engine can / or should I put in the car?... ideas on where to get one in Canada?

Thanks

Paul
